Well first lets consider sidewall height. That is a low profile, so you will have to be careful not to hit potholes at 60+mph or you will bend billet wheels. If you have chrome plated over steel then you don't have to worry as much but I still wouldn't aim for them in the street. Now all 20 inch tires are z rated which means high performance and higher speed rating. But this in turns brings your treadwear rating down. See you can get 16 inch tires rated from around 400 plus but 20's are usually around 300. The lower the number means the faster they will wear. So you won't get the same amount of life outta a 20 inch tire that you will a 16 all things condsidering because all 20's are high perfomance z rated tires.
