I hate them, but they were cheap cause I got a hook up from one of my suppliers since it was for my own car.

I really can't wait for spring to arrive so I can slap on my new Gold GTCs.

Doesn't look that bad. I'm sure most folks will think it's stock because it has that modern/ off the wall OEM design.

Dayam I feel for you snow folks! Drive safely.

They're really not bad at all. And since you know they're winter only I don't think you should care.

I dunno, I guess there are worse out there but I am thinking maybe I should have just got tires for the stock wheels since I am getting new wheels shortly.

Actually for the price of these wheels and tires it came out to being cheaper by about $200 CDN than getting 18 inch LMs. But this was only because the wheels were next to nothing from a supplier of mine.

Just messin' with ya. I know its almost impossible to wash after about 50 degrees. From the looks of it, we have even more snow than you guys. If that's possible.

last winter I washed my car when it was 5 degrees outside. I had to because it was just nasty. I had to be quick because the soap was freazing. By the time I was done, the whole car was covered in a half inch sheet of ice! This winter, my car is in storage though
