wondering if I should go to 20s so that I can eliminate all wheel gap yet still have some ground clearance (hush Blain!). What is the ride difference on 20s vs 19s? I know the tire are cheaper

Dave clearance with 20s vs 19s is significant. When we were at the GTG seeing the fact that Chris (g35papa) was almost tucking wheel in the back and Tim (ttrank) was tucking more than half of his tire and could still make it over speedbumps without scraping his KuRookie was nuts!

I just put 19's on and I'm wishing I had gone with 20's. It's a lot lower than I was expecting it to turn out

Yeah, I could run coils, tuck tire and not have to worry about getting stuck on snow rifts when changing lanes (almost happened this weekend)

Wonder how the ride is?

If I were to get a TL, it would be much more functional than the G...

so no its not the best that I can find, but close to what I would do with it.

I actually might be testing some Schwert SC2's in an 18/19 setup (yes this time the 18 is the front, not the rear since both are reverse lip). Would be 18x10+0 and 19x10.5 -5.
The front measurement would have been out of wack because my fronts coils were up and not at all where I wanted them. My guess would be like 24" even.

The rear was a hair under 24"

And the 18s that I test fit, the AME tracers, were 18x10+25 with 235/40s on em.
