yeah the salt can take a number on rims as well as sliding out into a curb is just as much a reason to me. It is sort of fun to rip roar around the snow in winter tires though.

i was under the impression a great deal of the rims seen on this site were aluminum... and as such, not subject to rusting in the traditional form... i mean aluminum does oxidize... but alumina is harder than aluminum (hence why anodized aluminum has a tougher surface than just brushed or milled aluminum)

Some snow can be fun...up here in canada lots of snow isnt so much fun. Always pack a shovel

(^not my car, but you get the idea)
