You should end up with 19" winters on your current wheels, and 20" summers on new wheels since that is what you want, and the only variable is the timing for each purchase. That would be my approach.


Best solution and probably cheapest way to break things up. Get the 19" winters now and then in the summer get a set of 20" 214 or 300M reps with some nice summer rubber. If you leased, keep the 19" summers for lease turn in. This gives you the best of all worlds. Safety, looks and performance.
