Ride difference between 19" and 20" tires / wheels
I have a C2 with the 19" wheels. Ride is nicely firm, but wonderfully smooth as well. I am looking at getting a set of 20" wheels for summer tires (keeping my 19" wheels for winter duty). The 19"s of course have a little more sidewall, which I like
Does anyone here have a standard suspension (non-PASM) car and can comment on the difference in ride feel between 19" and 20" wheels?
I am also considering going a little taller than stock on the tire sidewall if I get 20" wheels. (295/35R20 vs the stock 295/30/R20). I plan to get Michelin PSS tires. Any thoughts on that?

My friends c2 rides every so slightly smoother than my c2s. Its a little more noticeable on the bumpy stuff.
i wouldnt do that. W/ 295/35 youre raising the rear by more than 1 inch. Its not a Hot Rod.
I'd recommend going 305/30 as it will only increase the height by .25inch and its an approved Porsche Tire size.
I'd also go 9 and 11.5 for wheel widths.
