Have you hit any snow yet with those? I just put some M3's on a set of 16" Focus wheels and put my SVT wheels in my aunt's garage.

I made it through last winter with Bridgestone Potenzas on my stock alloy rims, and the snow was pretty bad. I've got the stock rims back on and I'm going to try to get through the winter with them.

I hate the salt getting on my car, and the only way to clean your car is by going to a car wash.

Not yet, still waiting. Have driven down some muddy dirt roads and no sliding around though.
