Hi Guys! :D

Its me again. What kind and size of winter wheels do you have on the car during winter?

I have StarSpoke 43 with 205/55 R16" :D It would be nice to have 17" on the car during winter time but I don't want to invest to much money in.

I will post some pix when I have the wheels on. Please post pix of your winter setup when the time is here:)

Regards! ;)

Winter setup is identical to Spring, Summer, and Autumn ;)

Eh? I live in a part of the world where winter's feckin' miserable I couldn't be arsed changing my wheels two times a year more than neccessary. Think of two extra 4 wheel alignments.

Appologies, just seen that you live in Hungary. Your winters are even more feckin' miserable than ours. Might be justified.

How's about caterpillar tracks?

Fu*k me thats good news! I thought that every time the wheels were off it was idvisable to get the allignment done, particularly if you do alot of miles.

Oh well then, which winter wheels will we get then lads? Think i'll go for hub caps...

Alignment work only needs to be done if you're playing around with suspension components.

Having said that, I changed my springs to Eibach and to this day I have had no alignment or tracking done and I've had no problems. No wobble, no uneven wear etc.
