Whatever tires come on the car im going to take off and either sell dirt cheap or save.. The wheels im going to put Winter tires on.. Maybe Dunlop Wintersport M2's... Great rated winter/snow tires.. because i use this as a daily driver so i need it to be useful during the winter.

Got them from www.wheelexperts.com. Pete over there has to be the most knowledgable and honest person in the business i have met.. and ive dealt with them all.. His price on these were even better than tirerack's which is a feat in itself.. If anyone is looking for wheels... Head his way and just let him know i referred you.
