Long story how I ended up with these. I was unsure if I would like them. They turned out great and I could not be happier, especially for the price!

Those look really good on your car. I got 20's as well and I was worried about the ride quality. I'm much more careful about hitting potholes now.

I rarely scrapped with the 19s... these 20's have a smaller rolling diameter so it is a little worse, nothing like my previous cars or S4. just be aware and you will hardly ever scrap.

The ride quality has def suffered since I went with the smallest tire I could... but I don't mind
