20" for Spring 2016

Got these wheels/tires while back, finally got them mounted this week. Compare to the other set GT3 19" with MPSS, these 20" CV3 & Hankook aren't all that bad. Ride comfort is about same...didn't notice much different.

As for the look...ehhh...i like it. something different i guess.

Weight pretty much same +- 1.5 lbs

Looking good.
I am debating to go 20's or stick with 19's on my C4S.
What are your tires sizes?

I ran them for a short while. Overall, I love the look, but from an aesthetic perspective they make the rotors look tiny. From a functional perspective, you feel every imperfective on the road. I kept mine for a few months and got rid of them at a great loss. Looks like the same set except mine were silver. In my opinion, 19" is best on the 997.

My prior 997 (non-S)

Thumbs up

Looks awesome! I love my two zeros as well. Just be careful downtown on 35. Some wheel killing craters out there.

+1, you have more choices with tires as well. Tire choices for 20"s are very limited.
