I got a good deal from CL member @antn on some Titan 7 TS5 20's. Wheel & Tire specs are listed below each image.

Initial impressions:

1. I LOVE the look and how the extra 1" fills in the gap. Stock 19's look great, esp w/ spacers imo, but still left a lot to be desired.
2. Don't believe the "hype" that going 20's will RUIN your ride! With my current setup, I have (.38") front, and (.31") rear, less sidewalls compared to stock, however, with 24 way damper adjustments on my coilovers, im close to finding my ideal settings. As of now, im at 11 clicks from full firm, or 54% on fronts; 10 clicks from full firm or 58% on rears and it rides BETTER and smoother than stock 19's.
3. I need to change caliper colors to create some accent, as of now, Brembo gold is on top of the list.

Yes, 20 Front, 15 rear. I think 25 up front will be a tad better. But still happy with the results.

My 2017 is in the shop for the 40k service - One of my staff members calls it "the attention getter 2000"

I got black calipers painted Porsche gold. Black calipers do a terrible job showcasing beautiful 6/4 piston calipers! “Brembo” decals arrive in a couple days.
