God I hate my rims right about now.

It's snowing like all hell here in Crackron, OH. I live a mile away from work and barely made it home. The stock BridgeJumper ****enzas really suck *** on the 2K3 SE. I knew the SE 17" would bite me in the *** at some point.

To make matters even more fun, not a single shop around even has anything for 225/50R17-235/45R17 with the exception of some Goodyears. I wouldn't take those if someone paid me. God forbid I ever get a flat.

Time to TireRack something I guess. I've been looking at the Bridgestone Blizzack LM-22s. Those faired out well in the ice rink tests, so that should rock around here in winter.

Anything throughts on those tired and/or a crap set of rims?

While I'm at it.....will 16"rims fit on the 2003 SE?
It's cheaper to get those in the Blizzacks and TireRack has 16" stealies but no 17"...

If you want a great all season tire that comes in your size as well look for the Falken Ziex 512.
