flat with 20" rims

i ran over a friggen pothole last night and bent both rims on the driver side and both went flat... i had my stock 18" rims put on to replace them... are there any down sides driving with 18" on one side and 20" on the other?

depends on the weather
depending on what size tires are on your 20's there could be major issues with the traction/yaw control and ABS

you should be fine for a short amount of time.

what kind of rims do you have? you must have hit a rediclous hole...or you may have soft rims.
