So winter is just around the corner and I just have a quick question. Right now I've got some 205/55/R15 Continental all season tires on my car and the wheels are Konig Rated R's. Is it necessary to put on the stock tires and wheels or will I be ok? I know...better safe then sorry but still.



Oh and since I posted a pic I might as well add that since this pic I have added a type r lip, taken off the VTEC decals, and changed the tails to 99-00. Soon to get black oem style headlights and s-tech springs.

 

I would recommend narrower tires if you are expecting to drive in snow.

 

Thanks for the advice. I guess I should have been a little more clear though. Will the wheels themselves be ok during the winter or will they get ruined?

 

if u live in an area where they dump a done of salt/sand then it might eat away at ur wheel a lil...if it snows alot or theres alota ice in ur area, i'd put the steelies on. never kno if u'll lose control and end up hitting a curb. if that happens with ur current set of wheels then u'll end up shelling out a good amount for another well/tire. but if u do that with steelies then its not as big of a deal, can get one at a junk yard...
