Wanted to understand from those who have gone to a 20 inch setup, the experience you have had:

1) Was there a significant difference in the ride quality?
2) Was performance impacted noticeably (e.g. acceleration, handling, etc)? For better or worse


thanks for any advice
The stock M-Sport wheels should be 19", AFAIK.

A heavier wheel will degrade ride quality. It will also negatively impact turn-in as well as during transitions. You may also lose significant sidewall impacting (no pun intended) the ride. That said, I've put many an aftermarket wheel on my cars and, IMHO, sticking with the manufacturers wheel, no matter the size, is the way to go. Suspensions are designed with the wheel/tire weight combo taken into consideration.
