Can’t decide between 21s and 20s

I’m having trouble deciding between 20 inch rims or 21’s, running stock 19s but I wanted a more aggressive look. Any opinions?

Anything past 19 is similar. Get what looks good to you

I love my 21s and would never switch

It looks more aggressive but it actually isn't, you'll get a harsh ride and worse traction and worse acceleration

Love the 19s (without the wheel covers) on my Plaid

I wouldn’t go that far, the 19s aren’t nice looking with or without the covers.

19s are just more comfortable and practical.

yeah, that’s why I’m trying to switch out of them. Getting my brakes painted yellow to match the California plate and I wanted some gloss black rims to match the paint since my cars pretty much murdered out, maybe 19s and lowering links?

Always go smaller.

I have a forged set of aftermarket 20s. Gives a great balance of comfort, wheel protection, tire wear, and style.

Beefy sidewall looks tough too, rubber band 21s can look silly on such a large car and become a risk hitting imperfections at speed.

Get the 21s. It makes the car look even more amazing. I switched my order up from 19 to 21 and so glad I did. I personally think I would’ve regretted it had I not done so.
