Best Wheels 20 or 22"

I just received my 300c on Thursday eve. I am going to upgrade the wheels to 20 or 22 in. Is the ride really rougher on the bigger wheels? Can someone point me to a site that has different 20 and 22 wheels available

Thanks

Here is a site someone else posted.
http://www.bigwheels.net/package_lis...le model=300C

I am also curious about the ride difference between the 18's and 20's.

Another thing to be concerned about is larger wheels are heavier and can apparently hamper performance.
Weight comparisons between wheels sizes and makes need to be researched.

I think these would look wicked on a 300C. Very fast / performance oriented. Put a new grill, with these rims on a black 300C and Wow.

Yes, doing any wheel upgrade even only a plus-1 will change the ride, however, it is up to you to determine if you like the ride vs comfort dilemma. 19"s probably give a good amount of remaining comfort with better performance. 20" probably give less comfort and maybe a little more performance for this car. 22's are for those that mainly desire looks over comfort and performance. Hear is a quote from Rapper/Actor Method Man in GQ:

"They're twenty-inch Lowenharts - but they're too big. You can't have twenty-inch rims in New York because of the potholes. That's why I always have a flat"

I have done a 15 to 16" and a 16 to 17" upgrade on cars that make a noticeable change in comfort.

I just Put 22'' :Lowenhart LDR's on and i love it the car looks sick and ride is still good.
And i live in Brooklyn, NY So if you want to go with a Rim Go with the Lowenhart LDR1 and you'll see how many necks you break
