Winter Set-up

this was my first time buying tires specifically for the winter...tirerack made the process very easy. I also would like to give a shout out to sgessler2011, who was kind to answer questions about his winter set-up.

I ended up with the Dunlops thanks to sgesslers suggestion. However, I had the hardest time picking out some rims. I settled with the Rial Milano. Let me know what you guys think of my set-up.

I feel your pan M3LO- the wheels are such a big decision! I'm buying mine from Tire Rack soon as well. Same tires, but I'm thinking about the moda MD14. I think it will look nice with the glossy b-pillars.

Any comments on the fitment for those? 16x7.5 48mm offset. I'm mostly concerned about the offset being too much. 7.5 is a little wider than I'd prefer, too.

Thanks buddy,
I kind of can't wait to try my new wheels and tires. It will be cold and snowy soon enough.
Good luck!

Blizzak WS70s... The only choice for me as I ran the WS60s on my BMW for a couple seasons and loved them to death. :thumbsup:

hey Sonny - I tried contacting you when I was ordering my tires but couldn't get through to you...oh well, a gentleman by the name of Todd was more than helpful.

My tires and Rims arrived this past wed...first time ordering from tirerack.com....seamless transaction!
