^^^ True.. since it's more in demand.. it'll be cheaper than 19's, throughout the various sizes of tires

can someone explain the camber issues? when you get 20's what are the "hidden" parts you need to get to make it work right?

don't worry about camber guys....next time you get an alignment...they'll fix any issues. Not a big deal when going from 19s to 20s.

As for reseting the ecu....there is a how to somewhere....its not just as easy as unplugging the negative battery lead. You have to mash the brake and some other sh*t too. By reseting the ecu, your car will make adjustments as it sees fit by the info it gathers from it many sensors. Anytime you do a mod (intake, headers, exhaust, etc), always reset the ecu so it can reconfigure everything and make adjustments based on what the sensors are now seeings. It takes it a few days to make the adjustments. This is the reason your gas mileage goes down....and then back up again.

It really comes down to the actual wheel. If you compare a 19 inch VOLK TE37 to a 20 inch VOLK TE37, the weight differences are pretty minimal.

It depends on what you want to do with your car. I don't think anyone would agree that 20's are the best choice for track use. But since I don't track, I love my 20's.
