I am getting M/S tires when I get my new set of rims, sure they arn't that good for snow but better than nothing. If that dang guy would just pay me already for what he bought from me on ebay I could order my stuff.

Get some wheels

I would look for some wheels on Ebay. If you are quick (i.e. before we get too close to winter) you can get them cheap (I paid $300 for 4 last summer plus $50 shipping even got some center caps thrown in.) (Watch the shipping price some ebayers will hammer you on shipping. It should be less than $100 for 4 wheels -- think 60ish.) I would look for the 16 inch stock wheels they look ok not like your 18s but are great in snow and the tires will be about $100 each at tire rack vice $200 and if you call them you may get a deal and they will have more choices than on the web. 17s are not quite as good in snow, tires are more $$$, but look better. In the end you will have winter and summer tires and wheels for about what you are talking for just tires. No remounting each summer/winter so no cost plus ... no worries about damaged wheels.

Hope this helps.

ATB,
Tom
