should i get 18s or 20s?

alright guys, so after this winter most likely i'm looking to get new wheels, i'm trying to decide between 18s or 20s. i have 18s right now (18x9.5) all around and am thinkin of upgrading to 20s, how much rougher is the ride on 20s? im lowered on eiabach sportlines springs.

thinkin of getting these in 20s, 20x10R and 20x9F OB color by the way!



thoughts?

I would also vote for 20s. I regret not getting 20s.

ye right now i'm with 18x9.5 all around, with 245/45/ tires.

the 20s that im gonna get would be 20x10REAR and 20x9Front.. would i have to buy camber kits and roll fenders to clear? what kinda offsets would i need for a nice looking setup?

basically, what do i need to pull the 20s off knowing that i'm dropped 1.6 inch front and back.

I think 19's are perfect, I had sportlines. But those 20's are sick

What help are you looking for?
They will fit just fine. I would do 285/30/20R and 245/35/30F, roll the rear fenders and possibly a small spacer front and rear.

I think my 18's are a tad small on my sedan but I can't afford to shell out 1200 for tires for 19. So go with 20's?

i'm looking for a semi agressive look, its still my dd so i don't want anything to crazy, so with the offsets, 43+ for the rear and 35+ would work?

and i want a little stretch on the tires as well so wouldn't i have to go smaller then 285rear and 245front for the tires?

if i do get the camber kit, do i need any supporting parts with it or just the camber kit itself? i would like it to look something like this in the end



sorry for all the questions ! i've done my research but i still rather ask the people who know more lol thanks again!
