Default Opinions Needed! Winter/Snow Wheels for NYC Metro Area??

Currently, I'm driving on 17" 225/45's p7000ss

I'm in Northern NJ, and so far not too much snow... but the friggin' potholes are opening up everywhere.

Last night, I put a small bubble in my front left sidewall. I took the wheel off last night to see if I damaged it. Luckily no damage to the rim.

So I'm wondering, what are the rest of the NYC metro guys riding on for the winter...

Default Riding Winter Asimetrico 210s on 15" steel wheels with covers...

Not the prettiest but when I get the 16" sport rims (7 spoke) back on
in the summer it'll sure make the car look (and feel) a lot more
aggressive again. :-)

Default Exactly, I put up with load, noisy, low grip (in dry) Yokohama...

snow tires all winter. We only had one Ice storm last year. I could have used the $430 towards a chip! This year I'm leaving on my Dunlop W-10s. So far, not one Snow-Storm. New York Winters are not what they used to be.

Oops, that should be "loud" not "load"
