19/20 setups
anyone have 18/19 or 19/20 wheel combinations on their c5? i tried searching through the specific wheel section but i'm just trying to get owner feedback on the larger rims and the overall possible complaints with them being larger as i can't find much in the wheel section.
i'd appreciate it if anyone had something to share.

I have about 25,000 miles on my 19/20" setup.
Rides nice, looks great, handling feel is much crisper and more responsive, traction is ok.
ZERO complaints. If I were starting over, I'd definitely continue to run 19/20's.

beautiful rides indeed. no one that has the 19/20 has a complaint then for the most part. i'm not looking for racing, traction isn't the biggest issue in a straight line but i am looking for overall road use. obviously if common sense is used and the wheels are based on what would be normal use i'm just wondering how bad they are to drive with. thanks alot, i appreciate it.
