This guy is weak ^^^ LOL!

20's all the way! Not a bad ride at all. Funny to hear people talk about it supposedly being a harsh/bumpy ride yet they are riding around on stocks or have never had 20's on their IS...

Go with your gut man!

Nice offroad scene too.

But for those living in areas with decent roads and/or multiple vehicles in household, 20's on the IS can be ideal.

It depends on your geographical region and the types of roads you'll be encountering on a daily basis. I went with 19s and running 275s on the rears cause I want meat and don't like running on rubber band size tires. It's all good to do that for looks but I went with functionality.

i think if you are getting 20", its better to have step lip, so it fill the gap with out looking over size other wise you should just get 19"
