Saved some money, need some pro advice
 
I know this is a lazy post. I have about $2k saved and want to get winter tires and summer wheels. Used or new makes no difference to me but I am partial to the 1 LE wheels, I love concave. I understand if I take some heat for this post, I started looking but there’s a ton of sites and I don’t want to pick a Maryland speed type of dealer and screw myself.

Anyway, if you were me, let me know what you would do. What would you pick?
It’s funny how I always see wheels I want, now that I can buy some, I’m drawing a blank, it’s terrible haha, thanks guys.:thanks:

Oh and to be clear, I want to get winter tires to put on my stock wheels for this winter, and get new wheels for the summer, I’ll worry about summer tires later.

Yes sir, those are beautiful, I was looking at the ferrada fr1’s as well but they are a little expensive for what I’m trying to do. I want my cake and to eat it too haha. I have to look and see if anyone has those 1LE replicas used or on sale so I can try and swing the winter tires too. But I’m going to keep looking, I’m sure there’s wheels I’ve never seen before that would interest me.

I put General G-Max AS-05 all season on my 2010 SS. That got me around just fine for Missouri winters under 2.5 inches. This is a great summer tire too. Check out TireRack for the G-Max tires and wheels.

I had those Generals on my 05 Saabaru, great tires all around.

Found some decent (not premium performance) wheels for $1500 and spent about $1100-1200 on my "winter" tires. Put the stock tires (summers) on the new "fancy" wheels and the Continental DWSs all seasons on my stock wheels.

DWSs will get you through the winter but from what I understand are not half as good as dedicated winter tires. They are also NOT run flats.

Meant to add that you should probably check out the dedicate Wheels/Tires section of the forum.

I paid $1350 for real ZL1 forged take off wheels.
