It is the 20's. I'm on 19th and notice a huge difference in ride quality.

If your riding on stock shocks and springs, you most likely are ready for aftermarket suspension.
The extra weight on the 20s would cause extra wear on the stock suspension.

Usually if you press down on any corner of the car and quickly release it
that corner should pop up and stay, if it bounces then it's time to change.
