Depends on your goals. 20" wheels are big and heavy, usually bend easily, and will make your car noticeably slower. Tires are hard to find and generally outrageous prices.

*Performance drivers (track hounds) are all on 17s &18s. (lightest and fastest)

*Cars and Coffee guys are on 18s and 19s. (compromise between performance and style)

*Shiny wheel guys are on 20-22" (maximum bling, minimum performance)

Ultimately you should get what YOU want and not what someone else thinks you want/need. Which Porsche driver do you want to be?
