From what I have seen, 99.9% of the people on Cardomain with 20's have not dropped thier cars. You can easily run 20's if you don't drop it but then it sits high. There was even one guy with 22's on Cardomain but it looks like a 4x4.

Here is my CLK on 20's, no problems and I just dropped the rear even more.
