20"Concept One / C F Emblems / JB4 / M5 Front / R1 Concept Rotors / Vorsteiner Spoiler (waiting on...)
I'm looking to rid myself of my new Concept One CS 10's in favor of the Miro 111's or OEM 172's; can't decide on whether to purchase 19" or 20" sizes as I have new 20" Hankook Ventus tires...If I were to size "down", I would have to repurchase a complete set of tires with the 172's, and possibly with the Miro's.... The pic below is in it's current state, and I must say as each day passes, I'm disliking the Concept One wheels in favor of the Miro's.....Comments?

I guess the real question is "would I be better off with 19"s or 20"s? I've decided on the Hyper Silver Miro's.......

I've been a fan of the Miro 111s for quite a while. I was sooo close to pulling the trigger on a set of 20s last year, but the vendors I contacted were sold out for at least 2-3 months and I couldn't wait that long. I ended up going another route and although I'm glad I did, a part of me still wants to pick up a set.
As far as tire sizes, many will recommend 245/30/20 and 275/25/20. Personally I was going to go with 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 for a bit more protection.

I have 20" Miro 111 and I love them. They bring out our cars well. The ride with 20's feels better than my stock 18s with run flats. I have mine lowered on H&R springs as well.

I appreciate all the feedback; I guess I should go with the recommended tires sizes above as I'm almost distgusted to drive mine since an unfortunate miship with a pothole; two new wheels and another $850 on top of the $2500 invested so far....with the additional protection I would feel better about driving it again!

that's unfortunate. i'd just fix the wheels and keep them. can someone photoshop this and lower it so it sits on the fenders? i think it'd look pretty sick lowered.
