Default GS owners with 20's: advice needed.

Mod's, i thought about this going in the wheel and tire section but it relates only to GS owners.

I've been looking to upgrade my wheels with 20's, my dad brings up the subject of how harsh the ride is going to be. My question:
1. Do you regret getting the 20's because the ride is so harsh?
2. How much harsher is the ride with 20's rather than stock?

Thanks for all the info

Good thing lots of GS owners read the wheel and tire section .

Seriously, this question has been asked MANY times. Did you try the search function to look for answers?

well i have 19s, and the ride is definitely harsher than 17s, but it's not unbearable. i think it still relies on the suspension the most. 20s have the same tires and profile setup as my 19s so it would be the same
