I was this close to pulling the trigger on these in 19s today.
The 20s look so damn good on your car, i'm not sure i'd ever forgive myself if i get the 19s.
What did you use for lowering? Do you have any rubbing whatsoever or did you have to modify anything to prevent rubbing? How do they ride...now that you've had them on for a few weeks or so?

4 wheeled car.
I rock my French plate to rep' my peeps
My car was slammed on the stock 18's and to be honest, that made the car super bouncy. With the wheels and tires (Vredestein), it's the best this car has ever ridden to me, even when I was on 19's with Michelin PS2.
Now that's too much, but thanks
Dare I say... they are played out now that I have them too? lololol

Go dubs! I lowered my car with www.adjustableairride.com adjustable links. I don't rub, except on the right front fender when I am in full lock and go up driveways, but that's because I didn't adjust my ride side high enough. Didn't have to mod anything (ie roll fenders or whatever) to make them fit. They ride really great and I would highly recommend them!!!

How noticeable is the difference between 35W and 55W in fogs? Is there a greater chance for burn out?

I dont see the greater chance of burnout with the HID bulbs at 55w. The stock fogs run at 55w and they last forever- the xenons have even greater life than that of halogen.
