I like the look of the 5 stars better but 20's are the way to go. They fit just right with a drop.

22's don't look good to me. 20's look plenty big enough without degrading performance.

The 22s look good with the lowered stance you have on your car.

If it's your daily driver.. I'll go with 20's specially after seeing that you still have oem brakes on your car.

i guess he's trying to say the 22s are much heavier and might put on more stress on the stock brakes and create fade easier

^^^ Like what he said... I believe the bigger wheels you get the heavier it is. The more stress it puts in wear and tear of your car. Axle, brakes, and maybe transmission. Specially if its your daily driver and if there's a lot of hills around where you live.
