Winter Wheels?
Who has their winter wheels on already?
I think I might put mine on this week, with the possibility of snow next Sunday... Opinions?

No worries...that's what the Jeep is for.
Although I have debated new shoes for it.

Going to do it soon. Summer tires are like hocked pucks when it gets to freezing temperatures plus it's not good for them in the long run, grip wise, from what I have read.

Last year being the exception, I'm usually kneeling in 2 inches of fresh snow when I change mine!

Does anyone know the fitment of sti stock wheels? My friend was telling me they will hold up well against the salt and snow.

my stock S6 wheels were stolen out of my garage (Who would want them, I don't know!!). I don't have the funds to get a winter set of wheels (being laid off and all)or even tires, how screwed am I with running summer wheels over the cold months?They have an agressive tread but get hard as rock...
Help?
