19's vs 20's
Getting close to taking delivery on my S. Ordered with 19's, but have really grown fond of the look of the 20" rims.
Would appreciate hearing from some who have experienced both with the air susp. Want to step up to the 20's, but not at the expense of a comfortable daily ride.
Would keeping the air susp in comfort setting most of the time defeat the purpose of getting a high performance sport ute?
Will get a separate set of 18's for the snow, so only need comparison regarding dry paths.

I have the 20" Porsche Design Wheels with Michellin Demaris - rated to 180 mph! - on my S with regular suspension and they look/drive very sweet!
I currently have the 18" CT wheels on with winter package Dunlop M2 Snow tires and these ride/perform very nice!

My 19's with the air suspension offer a very nice ride/handling compromise. I keep the suspension in the low setting all the time and use either the sport setting when I'm alone or the comfort setting when I'm driving with my family. If you like the look of the 20's...go with them as long as you have the air suspension.
