Wheels and winter tires

When I ordered my black CTT I couldn't decide between the black sports editions and the turbo II's. I ordered the black sports edition but I am thinking of getting snow tires with wheels as well and found Turbo II's from ROTtec and ACG Automotive Connoissuer Group. I was thinking of ordering these in 20" with snow tires. Any thoughts on this? Thanks for any opinions.

I would stick with 18" for snows. Much better if there is actually snow.

kocsis- I have heard the same thing but I hate to lose the look of the Turbo II so I am trying to find the fine line between looks and performance if it snows.

lawjdc- where did you get your 20" turbo II wheels?

So I found a set of Turbo II type wheels online with the following specs ....

Size: 20x9.5
Bolt Pattern: 5x130
Finish: Matte GunMetal Machined Face
Offset: 48
Hubcentric: 71.6

Do you think they will fit on my 2013 GTS? Would I need spacers?

+1 on this. Jeff can you let us know. I would also like to know how someone is assured of the strength of your aftermarket wheels as compared to OEM.

That is where I am at too. The wheels look great but I would be concerned about the strength and safety of them. Thanks.
