i always hear about people puttin the stock wheels back on during winter, is this just because they dont want them to get messed up by weather,

or is it not safe to roll them in the rain? (we dont get any snow)

i got some skinny ass tires to.

iv herd in general its not safe to drive with high pro wheels,or huge rims.it may look kool,but safe wise,you want as much tire as possible,even if it aint touchin the road.has to do with traction,and air capacity or some shit

The wider the tire, the easier it will hydroplane(think of how a boat staysafloat), tires are one of the most important things on ya ride safty wise.

shit is a pain in the ass to do though...

i gotta go to the tire store cuz i aint got a wrench, go with my friends truck, pay them to take them off, haul them back to my house...

and i aint gonna leave them in my backyard like my stock wheels, so i aint got nowhere to put them.


btw, it rained hella hard today and i hidroplaned a couple times , shit is crazy, my car started drifting like 30 degrees to the side, i was like uhhhh. wtf

I'd say just take em off. Why bother buying a set every year and blow money when you can spend a few minutes changing them, besides wheels aren't cheap.
