well i still believe that 20" might be too big / too heavy for the tc.

It'll really depend on the rim model. Some rims with thin spokes won't look good if they are too large, while other rim models with thicker spokes will look better bigger.

Don't you guys think it's too big?
The car can't even lower anymore.

Do you have any rubbing issues when turning? Also, how's your speedometer treating you now?

No rubbing at all. I do a lot of U-turns around here too. It rides good and handles fine. It just takes a little longer to stop. I plan to lower it some with the trd springs, i'm sure I'll have to roll the fenders in a little. Right now I have about a inch and some change to play with.

I looked into 20's and ended up with 19's cause the tire price was over 350 a piece. How much did you drop approx.??

The first set I chose was $2500 with wheels, tires, mount, balance, and whatever else they add. I told the guy they weren't gonna fit, but he didn't listen. So when those didn't fit. He let me pick any in the shop and I chose those which were sellin at 3g's.

I've always felt mine is just the right size.

Very misleading topic title by the way.
