I'd be interested in seeing them if you do...

I had 19/20 on pace 1. They were HRE's and I would guess the combo (w/ Pirelli Pzero) was lighter than stock...

It'd probably look fine...but you may want to consider 19/20 instead as tires are more commonly found in the widths you'll need.

Soon as the C5's sold, my 20's are going on the front and I'm waiting on my 22's to be made for the rear. There's a tire for the 22 that measures just one inch bigger in outside diameter than the front's 20" tire. Well, I hear a lot of negative here.... but a 21 or 22 on the rear would fit if done correctly and believe me, your car will get A LOT more attention with nice wheels - on the road or at a show. I'm going to lower it down like my C5, may even custom tuck it a little in the back to keep it down.

Oh, and as far as handling, MUCH better with the short sidewall. My wheels weigh a little less than the stock wheels too since they're light weight billet aluminum.

Best of luck
