Winter Wheel/tire setup w/ pics...

Here's what I run for the winter: 185/65/15 Blizzak ws-50 on black steelies from tirerack:

(can't wait for summer and R84 with F1 GS-D3s)

Also, I'm ordering the mini center caps that bolt on under the lugs.

wow you even used wheel locks, but those tires will be very high
value in the winter.

looks like you're prepared for the winter..although winter started for us
like over a month ago..(?)!

I didn't have any other lugs, so I had to use the locks. I'm paranoid, but not THAT paranoid! I actually had 'em on right after thanksgiving, just got around to doing some pics.

btw - in the spring I'm going to follow your footsteps (and many others') and get stripes without the white outline.
