Mmmmmm, looks like nectar Congradulations sir. I love the fresh clean shiny new Vibe. Too bad you have to take them off soon when it snows

I have the three good rims still. If I could find a fourth, I could have a spare set for the winter.

They aren't stock. They are 17" Orbits by Reaction. I searched high and low for them online, to no avail. I think Mase had some for sale, but I only need one.

lol i know they aren't stock... thats the beauty of it... winter wheels on NICE aftermarket wheels instead of steelies or OEM rims.if thats the worst you look all year you're doing alright.

went and got new tires Friday. BIG difference, I got General Exclaim UHP's. Since the new rims were .5 wider, I went with 235 45 zr17's instead of 225 45 zr17's. Really look great imho.

I am strongly considering those as my next set of tires but am slightly concerned about the UHP rating. I know they're supposed to be ok in light snow so, keep me informed as to how well they do in deeper stuff (if you keep em on).Thanks!Dave

I'll keep you updated. They are already better than my Barum Bravarus'. Ain't that right? Paul?
