    Looking to buy some new wheels soon... Wondering which size is better to go with... 19" or 20"? I have seen some f430's with 20" wheels that look good, but some look to big for the car... Would like to hear from some guys that did 20" wheels... If they are happy with them or 19"s the better choice..... Car might be on Long Island sometimes...roads there suck.. Thinking 19"s might be the better choice..... Thoughts? Comments?

    Bob- Novitec's NF2 and NF3 packages for the F430 included 19" fronts and 20" rears, if that tells you anything. 20s are a tight fit up front, even though some owners do run them.

    IMO you need CCBs to run some or most 20 inch wheels. The bigger the wheel the smaller it makes the standard rotor look.

    Great point! Steel brake rotors do look puny on 20"
