I think you'll find more people on 19s then 20s and the setup I have in my signature is what most of us go with. Some go wider and yes some go bigger. I went from the stock 16s to the 19s and yes there was a significant difference, but the car handles a heck of a lot better.

19s are safe for a pretty good ride. if you're stickin w/ 17s i don tthink there's much better than stock amg wheels. 19s opens up the door. 20's are a little rougher and more dangerous for potholes.
