    Winter Storage???

    Ok... As some of you know... I got the rims. I was talking to Kevin (demonvicticious... sp?) earlier about it.

    I want to mount these babies sooo bad but am afraid of the winter man. What are the main drawbacks of having 17x7's in the winter... I mean can the winter really damage my wheels? Should I just wait till Spring to mount them... Let me know PM, Post on here, IM me... Whatever

      don't do it. YOu will get terrible traction in the snow. I tried this when I had my khumo's on my 16's and damn near killed myself ... Just keep the steelies on till spring and then put them on..

      Salt and so forth also kills your finish.

                  I keep mine on during the winter, but I am lucky enough to live in a city where it never snows.
