Well, I'm ready for winter

Got my snow tire/wheels installed today. I think they look pretty good, if I do say so myself:

Looks very nice, what tires did you get?

Nothing fancy. My local tire dealer recommended Mastercraft Glacier Grip II: http://mastercrafttires.com/Tires/Pa...r-Grip-II.aspx

This is the first time I've gone with a dedicated winter wheel/tire combo. It was a little expensive up front, but in the long run I think it will save the wheels from damage changing from winter/summer, etc.

I really liked the BBS wheels. Ideally, I would have preferred 19", but figured 18" would be best for winter.
