Default Winter rims

Hey what rims are you guys running with your winter tire set up? Have a 550 msport that I'm starting to look for winter tires/ rims for thinking 18s with blizzaks already checked out tirerack but wondering what you all would suggest as far as good reliable easy to clean set of rims for winter.

I'd go with 17's for winter. It will let you get down to the narrowest tire, probably a 225/50.

I use my factory Style 116 wheels. They're 17's and fit a 225/50 tire on them. I suppose you can do 18's as well as long as it's not really wide. My summer wheels are the Style 121's and fit 275's so that's a bad idea for winter.
