Upon further reflection, I'm going to stick with 19's, probably the Leggera HLT. It looks like I would need spacers front and rear, and I don't like doing that at all. Thanks for everyone's help.

I bought the car this year. Looking for what suspension and exhaust mods to improve the car with. Do you have mods on yours? Can you lower it with the 20 inch wheels

Depending on your car and donor wheels:
Meaning for C2 to C2 or Narrow body cars to NB:
- 5mm spacer for the rear is a minimum but 7mm is ideal for stock fit (most wheels are 70ET )
- front is fine but 3-5mm make is look better
for C4/C4S/Turbo - you'll need a 20mm spacer for the rear if you got NB wheels on WB 997
If you have a WB to WB it fits and works as intended. Also WB 991 wheels on 997.2 look nice and flush. But don't run OEM 991 sizes or it will rub.
Additionally the correct tire size is not OEM 991, which is 4% higher then stock. OEM 997 wheel tire size is 25.8", while 991 is 26.8-27"
Ideal tire size 245/30R20 front and 295 or 305 /25R20 for the rear
