changing from 18" to 20" wheels

I have lowered my car by 1 1/2 inches, and found the car to be quite sensitive any any bump in the road. I am now considering changing my wheels from 18" to 20" with 255x35 tires, but am a little concerned that the ride may become very hard. Has anyone had any experience with this.

Not that set up, but I switched from stock '17 to 18 and what aneye opening and rattling experience, I can only imagine how bumpy it would be in 20s and lowered.

Welcome to the forums, as for the ride, its going to be rough, but if the styling out weighs comfort then by all means go for it.

20's are going to def. make the ride rough. If that's a concern, stay away from 20's

Welcome! I am upgradinger as well to 20X10 275/35/20. From my experiences, 20's give any car/SUV an uncomfortable ride. But, your stang will look all the better. Check out the tire Sec. for more info. Enjoy!
