It's uncomfortable, not on comfortable.

It should be fine. I have 20's as well and drive all over LA through santa monica.
You will def. feel a difference but not to bad. Just watch out and drive carefully. I even dropped my car so you should be okay. Just rap them with good tires.

20"s are loud and even louder depending on the tire brand you choose. I had BFGoodrich KDW2s and so many people complain about them being one of the loudest tires out but I love them. You will have to run 30 profiles and that increases potential rim damage.

I got 20's. Doesn't shake that bad. I like to say that I feel the road when I drive now.

For the people who have 20's, do you have aftermarket suspension kit?

I have 20's w. the 350z Tein Htecs..The ride is comparable to stock and a little better in fact. I don't regret the drop or the rims. The only thing is on dips the car rubs a little up front. I'd rec. doing the struts but I dont regret either one of the mods above.
