Opinion wanted 19 or 20 wheels?
Have a set of vossen CV3 wheels in 19.. Can sell them and get 20s for a couple of hundred more.. WHat is the consensus on here, are 20s ride harsh? WIll be installing non-RFTs.
Daily driver Msport X3 3.5i..

So after doing research and tremendous amount of responses, here are considerations when choosing either:
1. Tire sizes 245/45/19 and 275/40/19 rear are best staggered set up given the exact diameter match between the two sizes. 20 inch 245/40 and 275/35 diameters are slightly different, resulting in additional transfer case stress 2. Ride quality degradation with 20s, less sidewall less absorption even with non-rfts. Given these two points, I decided to stick with 19s with all season tires (DWS or AS3 tbd) This is daily driver, commute car so the amount of stress added with staggered set up in 19s should be minimal. 20s look better, but less practical..
