rotating mass hurts . . . and it changes your gear ratio . . .
LARGER RIMS DO NOT CHANGE YOUR GEAR RATIO!!!! only if the tires you purchase are a larger diameter than the stock wheels which the diameter is 27.2. the most common size for 20" rims is 255/35/20 which is a 27" diameter. thats not enough to change your gear ratio.
If you are gonna quote me . . . be sure and quote all of me and don't try to make me look stupid from mis quoting me . . .

i said after that . . . if you originally were a smaller tire diameter wise, it would make your gearing higher . . .

leave that out, and it makes my post dumb . . .
