The ride was already too harsh for my liking so no way I’d do 20s even if some people do think they look better. Keep in mind, these cars are already hard on inner tire wear so going much wider than stock may accentuate the problem and there is no alignment remedy.

I think it largely depends on the roads where you live. Nice roads = 20s. Because these cars can be jarring as is, and I live in a small town with ****ty roads, it’s 19s for me.

19's all day unless you only drive on a perfectly paved race track! I just upgraded my wheels with BC Forged 265's on front and 305's on the rear. As big as you can go. They are 19's and almost rattle fillings loose as others have stated. They look awesome though and perform awesome. Absolutely no need for 20's. Because your fillings will come loose! LOL

Good Luckj

Even with 19's I bend one / dent them to unfix-able every few months.

I have Vossen 20's (255/30F X 285/25R) on my wagon (lowered) - look is great all tucked up in there when in Sport + suspension setting
if i had to do it all over again i'd prob still go with 20's - especially if lowered
also my wagon is not my daily driver
