    Hmmm, I think I will...

    Is it common to get rock chips on rims? I put mine on last march and they still look almost as good as new.

    i'm too lazy to put them on and take them off (incase of major snowfall).. so I'll just wait awhile.

    Not really, but wheels are meant to be used and not garaged. I'm only worried about having a nasty snowfall and having to drive on summer tires.

    is so tempting to put it back on, but with the rocks and stuff. I am gonna wait till at least late march. plus there will be another snowfall and I don't want to keep changing it.

    I think the going rate is usually about $20/wheel. All this talk of summer rims going on is crazy
    I know its a bit premature. I'm going to to wait till at least beginning of march.
    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.”

    what a bunch of women, one of my friends drives his 911 c2 with pirelli p-zero's around during the winter. I'm sure you can drive your "performance" tires on your civic around.
