Whats everyones experience with tires and driving year-round in New Orleans.

the reason y volks are so popular with the Z/G crowds is that it works well and looks the best imo....i've seen that RH wheel on a Z and imo looks like poo....yes, volks are pricey but it's so worth...i used to worked in the marigny drive my Z daily over some of the most crappiest roads, hitting potholes and not one dent on them....i caught a flat once and had to drive about 4miles to get to somewhere safe to change my tire and my wheel never dented, bent or warped...i stand behind the qauilty of ray's wheels 100%(volks). the reason i went through 4 sets of them was because i'm a wheel ***** and wanted to change the look of my Z and with every new volk...i had a new brand new looking Z

There is a reason I'd rather take the time and save up for Volks rather than buying something just to have it.
