Scott Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 If the offsets are still the same then you might struggle to get ones to fit VS arches. I needed a 10mm spacer and I could still go another 5mm IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got 20" Fox RS 8's on my Supe, considering downsizing though as the novelty's kinda worn off lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spider2123 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Yeah I know what you mean, I would imagine the ride is Tit bouncing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 The ride on my 20's is no worse than it was on the 18's. Infact, everything about running my 18's was shocking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The setup on your 18s must have been shocking then. I've had 17s, 18s and 19s on my car, with the proper tyre sizes, and the difference in ride comfort is night and day between all 3. I'm willing to bet that 20s would follow the same trend rather than bouncing back down to 17/18 comfort levels. I'm happy to live with the slightly rougher ride quality in order to get the look. Standing traction doesn't bother me much and I don't really need to worry about snap oversteer, due to my driving style, so I'm happy to live with the negatives of larger alloys/lesser sidewall. Defending your own setup and your own choice is fine but to say there is no difference in ride comfort between 18s and 20s is just ridiculous IMO.
