Post Your Winter Wheel Set up

A sad, sad day has arrived for me - the annual changing of the gaurds - summer wheels to winter wheels.

To help me and any others going through this tough time, I thought I would start a thread where we can all post pictures of our winter wheels...

My summer set up


Since I had the wheel off I did a quickie clean up to the corners




OEM wheels back on :-(


They are winter wheels but they still remain presentable – what do you take me for a savage?


Hopefully other will play along!

 

Nice S40, looks like a r design?

 

My summers are now my winters but with Nitto snow tires:

 

Thanks Boosted...

very, VERY close... It's my V50 R-design.

Looks like you have seen some snow already this season huh?

 

Yep. That was Saturday. It was pretty nasty on the roads but had to go 20miles to pick my wife up at the airport in this:

 

Last year's winter set up.






This year's set up, got to get the snows on them.

 

BBS as your "winter set up" - Killing it Phil, simply killin it... Nice mang, real nice!

 

LOL I wanted to run something others would not do. Opti Coat plus Wolf's Rim Shield make any winter set up a win though.

 

Unfortunately my parents don't believe in winter tires which sucks because on the newer accords the OEM's suck but on my dad's van Yokohamas have a lot of traction.

 

Don't believe in them ! That's brutal. Winter tires are a safety investment the way I see them. They do wonders! The best all season will not come close to what a entry level winter tire has to offer.

 

Where did you get the plastic tray that you're using under the tire?

 

I run 16" steelies on the Scion during winter, but here are my 3 Summer tire set-ups:

Stock 18" on the Scion:


17" RPF1 on the RX-7 (track/most-of-the-time wheels):


and the "Spare" 17" MazdaSpeed MS-01 for the RX-7:

 

Since I live in Texas and we don't have to switch, I thought I'd post pictures of my mum's 335i winter setup she just purchased and had installed:

Summer setup:

In case anyone is wondering, they are 350M reps.

 

Summer Set-Up (Champion Motorsport RG-19's)


Winter Set-Up for the Last 5 Years (Factory Turbo Twist Hollow Spoke's)


For this Winter and on i have my GT3 Wheels Track Set-Up doing Double Duty as my Winter's Wrapped in Falken EuroWinter's

 

Man; everyone has super nice winter 'sleds'. Great wheels too.

 

WINTER? SNOW? NO SNOW HERE! lolololol
I can show picture of my daily bus i take to work but I'll keep that hidden =p

 

My winter setup is the same as my summer setup for obvious reasons.

 

Some really nice winter wheels - I wouldn't have expected anything less from the DB bretheren.

GF: that is just a lid that went to a retired rubber maid bin. If I am doing an extreme corner detail I bust out a little tray that will hold the liquids that fall off the suspension components.

 

Terragrapplers are awesome tires...........

 

Summer setup - Stock TL-S wheels



Winter setup - Stock 04-06 TL wheels
