Default 20 Inches on a B6 S4?

I want to get new rims (zyoxx ZX3) but i dunno whether to go with 20's or 18's. Either way i need new tires, but should I go all out with the 20's...or should i stay safe with 18's? Will the 20's **** up my performance or turning at all, and which tires would be the best? Here's what i need:
Zyoxx ZX3 18's w/ new tires (235/40 18) width 7.5

or

Zyoxx ZX3 20's w/ new tires (225/30 20) width 8.5 or 7.5

I have Soprtcontact 2's on right now with stock rims those are 235/40 18's width = 9.5 i think...
If anyone knows any other chrome rims that would work with the Sportcontacts i already have...lemme know please.
Otherwise...what should I do?

20" is just gonna kill the look IMO...18s good, 19s good, but 20's will give it that cheap look I think, goofy at least...

Thanks for the imput. I was worried about the cheap look factor. Any other rim ideas in 19's or 18's?
I definitely want chrome, but I want it classy. Also...a little of topic...but...my dad's 65th is coming up and i want to get him rims for his Bentley GT Continental...what should I go with...what size?

If you want chrome, go with HRE.

I suggest these for your S4


BBS RS-GT


I think 19's look great, but I'd suggest 18's if the roads in your area are trashed. Stay away from the 20's...they just don't fit well or look good on a b6 s4.






I have 18s...

Since you're getting opinions, I think almost every chrome wheel I've seen on a car looks cheap. Chrome works better on large wheels for a truck IMO.

But hey, if you like it thats all that counts...go with what you feel works...
