depends on the offsets. but 20s will make the ride pretty rough. I'm on 19s and Ive bent two rims already.

Bent rims? Why? because of bad roads in the bay?

Your thinking about putting 20s on in Michigan? Home to some of the worst roads in the US? Have fun with that!

And, BTW, I know from experience, I lived there for my 1st 26 years of life and still visit there yearly.

I hit a sunken in manhole cover and bent the both outer lips of the wheels on the drivers side.
