17 vs 20, um ill have 20s no, ill pick 17ers...uhh???!!!
The answer: unless you're from west coast customs, you shouldn't put 19+ inchers on your vehicle, mainly for ride comfort, because (High side wall=more comfort, partially a side wall acts as a "tire shock absorber").
But at the same time less side wall=sleeker profile, and then makes the car handle better.
Take the time to read this note:
Michelin aims to eliminate flats and blowouts with its remarkable Tweel concept, an airless one-piece wheel-and-tire combo that could soon enter production. The Tweel's hub connects to polyurethane spokes that assume the shock-absorbing role of a traditional tire's sidewall. The spokes are bonded to a reinforced rubber tread band that can be as specialized as today's tires. By varying the thickness and size of the spokes, Michelin can generate a wide array of ride and handling qualities.
