It rides well, but occasionally if I am driving aggressively on hilly roads I can get a little wheel rub at the bottom of a hard dip.

Also, I checked my front tires and they are 225/30R20.

20s just don't work for me. I have seen quite a few and even struggle with some 19" choices on a 986 model. My focus is always performance driving and not-so-much the Euro-meet crowd so I may be an outlier. In the end, it's still a free country so drive what you like.
