Found the Set of winter wheels,will be installed in couple weeks.will upload pics then.
.I was told in about 75% tire shops that skinny tires are better for winter,so i believed that is true .you would think that tire shops would know those kinda things.But i haven't really noticed any difference myself driving wifes Q3 on 255,my A5 on 255 and now C43 on 225.(that will change most likely)Thanks for all input and help

Haha dirty? That's clean for a black car in winter if you ask me. Once I'm a block away from the car wash my car is already "dirty" by car guy standards lol

For Anyone wondering what this set up is there is some specs Below:
Niche Verona (they are hub centric so no rings required)
Front-19x8.5 ET42 10mm spacer 225/40/19 Sottozero 3
Back-19x9.5 ET48 no spacer 255/35/19 Sottozero 3
14mm x1.5 Ball seat Lug bolts 40mm shank for both.
Also need TPMS or swap from oem wheel.
No rubbing or any other issues whatsover.But gotta say front is pretty hard to find something decent.

9.5 in the back , if I had a 10-12 mm spacer it would be flash , but since this is winter set up I'm ok with it,
front I had to use spacer cause wheels wouldn't fit.
i don't think stock plus 12mm spacer would be flash .
For some reason my stock wheels in the back look Way inside the fender

the sizes they told me should work are 8.5 front with 45 offset and 9.5 rear with 48mm offset.
i guess i'll wait and see when the rims come in

interesting, i'm waiting on a local michigan vendor to get the c63 replica rims in stock, planning on running the stock summer tires on them.
the sizes they told me should work are 8.5 front with 45 offset and 9.5 rear with 48mm offset.
i guess i'll wait and see when the rims come in
