There's pro and cons for both. Weight, tire price, looks....it all depends what is more important to you.

I am happy with my 19s but tires do cost more than 20s would.

Why do 19 tires cost more than 20's..just because you don't see 19's a lot? I am new to all this..

I would like 20s but with the way the roads are here with all the snow in the winter and potholes in the summer I bought 19s. I just wanted a littel more tire to help protect the rim.

Yes. 20s are more popular so the tires are more readily available = they cost less.

for your conditions, go with 19s. Yeah tires will be a little more, but your rims might appreciate the little extra rubber for all the potholes and bad roads.
