I meant towards the "bit bumpy" part. Not the wheel size. I'm not as cool as you guys...I only went with 19's.

Well, at least you don't have to worry about the rubbing issue with 19". I haven't heard any rubbing yet, but I would expect that happen when the car is loaded with passengers.

According to KU530, he's experienced rubbing with his 20's. It depends on your offset though too.
Good luck on the new ride Saridi. Cant wait to see the new wheels cuz I don't like your temps.

Yes I had rubbing key word is had. I have since rolled my fenders and no more rubby rub whoa hoo!!! Yes the offset is big plus I went 10 wide in the back and I have a 4" lip on my rear wheels. Some things I was not willing to compromise on so they built my wheels to the right offset with that lip and I only had rub when the kids where back there and I took a big dip going above 50mph. but that is a thing of the past. Now on to bigger an better thing such as my stereo build and an exhaust.
Good luck on the new ride Saridi. Cant wait to see the new wheels cuz I don't like your temps.

Did you find out which part of the rear fenders cause rubbing? My car rubbed once today with a deep pot hole (glad the rims are strong..lol), but I cannot find where can cause the rubbing...

It usally rubs around the 11 oclock area thru 1 oclock. Roll your fenders your self. I will sell you my fender roller. It is easy.
