i have the factory 20" with ROF tires and i feel safe and secure driving around in it, even with a lot of rain.

Summer tires are the safest bet in summer conditions (wet+hot)

All seasons are convenient but if you can live with taking one half a day out of a year to swap tires summer and winter, you will be on safe tires all of the time instead of being compromised with all seasons no matter what time of year.

I think the only place you *may* feel like you're getting unusually harsh of a ride would be between Norview and the HRBT on 64 West. I think 264 from Waterside to the beach would be fine. And most of the surface streets are asphalt instead of concrete as well.

The 20's with the Y-spoke give you a MUCH more agressive look. If that's what you're going for then you'll be just fine! :thumbup: Personally, I think the look rocks!
