Default How 19/20 ride

I am thinking about putting a 19/20 on my c5. I am just wondering if anyone can tell how this thing will ride. I don't to make something that will beat your brains out. Let me know what some of you guys think.

I went to 18's all the same size 275 40's non run flats, and the ride is way better, I have no traction control problems.

I get slight rubbing that is barely noticeable exiting my steep drive, and now I can rotate my tires and get more life out of them.

Rides fine. Just have to be cautious of the tire height. I swapped for 18/19x12 spider wheels and tires and like the feel better with the larger sidewall. But the 20's were fun because the sidewall was so stiff it made it easy to have fun and kick the back out here and there.
