My winter rims/tires are here!

My winter rims and tires are here...now if only I had a car to go with it! (hopefully it will arrive at the dealership this weekend)

18″ MSW Type 16 rims and 225/60R18 Bridgestone Blizzak WS70 tires from Tire Rack for my 2LT/RS. I was surprised at how light they were.

Come on, Winnipeg winter! Do your worst!

Yep, nice rims. We ran on them last winter.
They look good on the car too!

Good job, real nice match! Hope you put on an extra coat of wax like I did. I still have my summer tires on, saw the season's first snow flakes in the air driving today! Nothing on the ground yet, maybe put my winter wheels on next week. How did the handling change with the new wheels?

I haven't noticed too much of a change. The handling is a *little* spongier, but it's nothing drastic. Then again, I haven't really driven it as aggressively with the winter tires as I have with the summer tires, what with the roads starting to get slippery and all.

How much did they cost? I have been thinking about wheels/tires for winter too.
