I have the Turbo II wheels for summer, which I LOVE. Thought I'd do something a bit different for the winter...

Very nice setup! I'll have to get a new winter setup probably within a week or so after I take delivery in February..... Sony think the summer tires will get me through the last few months of winter.....

Which brings me tome next issue, finding them. Everyone put the feelers out for them for
Me.

Thanks guys! My timing couldn't have been more perfect. Woke up to a winter wonderland today!

The tires are Vredestein Wintrac 4 Xtreme 275/45R20 which seem to have great reviews. And the wheels are Zehn wheels from Victor Equipment. Got the set from the dealer and it included storage of my summers and tpms

Looking VERY nice to me!

Just got a new set of 18" Pirelli Ice & Snows on the GTS, and then, with perfect timing, two weekends with snow driving....I love those tires.

Ordered a new 2011 S with January build for the wife with 21"s, but I'm liking the look of those 20"s for winter . Of course, my ride is the primary snow vehicle...er beat to ****...but its nice to have the option.

Anyone knows if you can use the original wheel nuts on the zehn wheels or you have to use tunner nuts? I am tempted to get a set but don't like the idea of keeping a set of original nuts around in the back just for the spare tire.
