How many of you leave your custom rims on during the winter?
I have 18" rims with 225/45 tires and thinking about leaving them on during out Jersey harsh winters.

Usually my second set is 15-16" (depending on the car) and either Winter or All-Season tires. Last year I used All-Season Yoks and they were amazing.

salt!
Definitely change your wheels over in the winter. Salt is bad for your wheels.
I would only keep them on if I wasn't going to drive it during bad weather conditions.
Your nice wheels will last longer and look newer in the spring when you put them back on too!
