Seriously ??? Do you understand that getting a 20" rim will decrease ride quality and performance ? Those rims are boat anchors, you will have to run a ridiculously low profile (which will destroy ride quality) and because of the thin sidewall, should you hit any modest pot-hole, say bye bye to the rim and possibly the tire....

If you are looking to spend ~$1600, just wait and get a used set of HREs for a tad more or get a new set of Forgestars....

I'm running 20" wheels and the ride quality is no more harsh than when I was running 20's , the handling and sharpness of the turn in and cornering is far superior . I also don't think you will notice any proformance difference due to weight in real word driving .

I like the avante garde wheels
I considered them for my DD as they were real close to the HRE monoblock design
Ive heard good things about them from my freind who is a distributor.

I think 19s or 20s would look good on your car
