Have you noticed a significant difference in the ride going from 19's to 20's?

The ride is much grippier because of the tires. The day before I put these on I found a bubble on my runflats. Happy to dump those guys.

Stock runflats suck. Super loud and lose traction all the time.

There was no problem with fitment of the rear wheels? Do they stick out past the fender?

I recently changed to the Hankook Evo2s, 20". If you search, I don't recall which forum, you will find a short evaluation I wrote. Still love them, especially compared to the Dunlop RFTs. To address the other post, going from 19" RF to 20" non-RF is like adding 6" of sidewall in terms of comfort.

They came staggered and fit perfectly. The wheel shop balanced and added the spacers I think.
The rear tire area bulges out a bit and the tire fits perfectly inside the wheel well.
