Winter wheels accomplished today, 225/45/18 X-ice and gunmetal rims.
The installers thought the summer's would never fit in the car but they managed to squeeze them in, one behind the driver and two behind the passenger seat and one in the back. I was squeezed in, too. Luckily, it wasn't a long drive home. For the Toronto people, I already tested them out on a pothole on Keele Street...

Beautiful wheels GIJoe, summer or winter!
Just be aware that this sportscar turns incredibly quickly and sharply which can present a hazard negotiating narrow city streets with high curbs (ask me how I know, but thankfully already rectified).

Yes, the bulk of my TTS driving is now country roads which makes the Boston cowpath streetscape more rare and daunting. Another case in point for dedicated winter rims/tires.

Just finished installing my winter tires & rims.
Blizzak WS80 225/45/18
I bought Audi Center Caps, Lug Bolt Caps & Valve Stem caps from eBay just to finish it off
Bring on the snow!
