Congrats with your new car.. I chose 17 inch wheels with wintertires for safey. Plus the 17 inch wheels and tires are less expensive so that helped me making the decision.

I decided to bite the bullet and let my 545i hibernate for the winter. My brother's selling his '99 Honda Accord (5-on-the-floor!) 4-banger to buy a new car, so I decided I'd be the buyer. Probably not the safest of options, but it's FWD and with a set of Blizzaks on there, the car's not bad in the snow.

i would defiantely invest in a pair of winter wheels as you do not want your nice summer wheels to get damaged during the winter month. so getting a smaller wheel help keep down tire costs as well. Personally, it is best to run a narrorer tire during winter to cut through the snow. maybe try running 205 instead of 225. as far as tires go the blizzak lm's are a sure bet. might want to try the new lm-25 which is supposidly the replacement to teh 22's

I think the TV Raj is a pretty good guy. He's clearly quite intelligent but not so much as to make him less "street smart" if you know what I mean. Too bad he's one mistake away from getting fired!
