520rwhp NA daily driver

Hello all,

As the title says, I have around 520rwhp currently and it is still my daily driver. I am at the point where my Nittos Invos are pretty bald and need to change them out. With that said I would like to do everything at once if it is the best bet for grip and performance. As stated I will not really be going to the track often, maybe once a year or two if that. I currently have 20" TSW nurburgrings which are nice rims but I think I might have damaged one. Would it be wise to swap to 19s or is there really not that big a difference from 20 to 19 for street purposes?

Night and day IMO; just did that and car drives a lot better and feels just right. 20inch were always too big IMO. The gearing gain is cool+weight réduction is worth it.

17" lightweight drag wheels and a soft tire really help these cars out. especially manual trans cars

you'll have a much better chance of putting all the power to the ground on them
