Questions About 20 Inch Wheels Or Should I Stick With After Market 19's! Please Help!

hello everyone i hope this message find you all well.

I wanted to know, if i get 20 inch wheels will the bend, and get out of round?
Should i stay with aftermarket 19's or go to 20's is the side wall really that much smaller, and will they hit the fender? What is rolling the fenders? with 20's will i bottom out, is that possible?

Im dropped with 20's and dont have any rubbing. Whenever you mod a car there will be things you will have to deal with. Yes you will have to watch out for pot holes. I have two friends with forged 20's and have about 15k on them with no bends. The roads here in Sac are junk. Then again I had about 100 miles on mine and bent one. It was about 75.00 to fix, not a big deal.

I have 20X9 front and 20X10 rear AXIS MODS. With Falken tires. They have 14,000 miles on them. They have never rubbed or bent. I did not adjust the camber bolts or do any adjustments. The tires are wearing great. Although, It felt like I lost a little HP due to more friction on the road and a little taller tire.

You should be ok with 20s. Just be careful of potholes, but you should be doing that anyway with any size of aftermarket wheels.

Sure why not as long as you don't care about decreased performance.

Get the 20s. I debated these same questions when I was looking for wheels. I was afraid to go 20s for the same reasons. But, everyone I spoke to said do 20s. I went against my first thoughts (to get 19s) and am really glad I did. The 20s give me everything I was looking for in a wheel.
