Winter wear on my new rims!?

[Shanks12]

Cost me ~$75 to get the rims switched out, balanced, rotated. Gotta do it in the spring when it gets nice and winter when I take them back off

You should just bite the bullet and mount different tires up on your winter wheels and swap them out yourself. That $160 a year adds up plus it's a pain in the ass. I've done it but I finally just bought a second set of tires and it's so much easier now.

I just swapped to my winter wheels which are the steelies that came on it. They're ugly, that's for sure, but better than messing up my others.

Yeah very true... But I love the look of my tires now.. I'd have to find something that looks and performs like these.. for fairly cheap..

If you cared about them, you would switch them out.


Thats how i look at it.

It's either run ugly wheels in the winter, or run ugly wheels year-round after they get raped by salt.

even though they are clear coated after 1 winter they will be pitted and junk, especially if you have chrome valve stem caps or lug nuts, seen countless rims go to shit in 1 winter

You will be happy in the spring when they go back on nice and CLEAN
