Thinking of getting CV5 square set-up for 6mt sedan. Daily.

So I've seen how vossen wheels look on skylines (G series Q series,etc) pics
I noticed how most of them come on 20".

I currently have my winters on the duckfeet wheels, and MMR 19' for summer, I feel a huge difference in how smooth the ride is when switching from the stock 18s and mmr 19s. Issue is if i go with vossen 20 will it be even less "smooth", feel potholes, imperfections on the road,etc. My G is my daily and i live in Calgary (canada) where the weather does destroy the roads (city is great at keeping up...on certain areas).



PS: Looking for a square set-up. I like the Silver and Machine black finish on the CV5 and on the Stance SC-6I X Deep Concave.

PS2: I'm going for looks, but as wheel i don't want to stagger the wheels /loss performance for looks type thing.

PS3: So i'm looking for comfort>performance>looks. sort of thing.

Thank you guys

We can't tell you what wheels YOU would like on your car. Seems like you already know what you want as far as wheels. Duh you will have a "worse" ride with rubber band tires when you go up to the 20 inch.

Personally I am an OEM guy and would rather save money and put on the 19 inch Z wheels

Or what exactly is your question????

If it's comfort that is most important then go 19s, especially if you're already noticing a big change from 18s to 19s.

Those Z wheels are a good option as far as quality & weight but keep in mind the Nismo setup is very aggressive in back, more so than the regular 19" staggered Z sets. It will take quite a bit of "help" to look proper on the Sedan.
Here's the specs on OEM Z sets
