ASA GT1 17" from tirerack
I just changed my mind in the last minute to order a set of ASA GT1 17 in. for the snow tire from tirerack. Does anyone order this wheel from them and what do you guy think? I need some input.
Many thx.

I think with 17inch size it doesn't matter. This is a lot of tire to protect against bending or cracking it.
I would be concerned with this design for winter. I know it looks nice, but looks like a pain to clean and during winter it'll be dirty quick. So all this nice design will be always dirty. Plus i'm not sure if multi spoke looks good on SUVs, I like them on regular cars better.

Where I go in the winter chains are required. The chains that are designed for alloys don't really hold up too well and since the car gets covered with dirt and mud I really just need function over looks and would prefer to mount OEM 17" steel rims so I can mount the std heavy duty chains and not worry about the crap made for alloys coming loose and beating the wheel wells to death.
Does anybody know where I can get steel rims that are OEM fitment in North America?
