Default Better with a couple of extra inches!

The wife said a couple of extra inches would make all the difference, so..... today I removed the 18" winter wheels and put on the newly refurbished 20" ones.
But when I asked the missus what she thought, she said she couldn't see any difference.
What do you think?
