I don't see thread yet and I put my winters on last weekend so ready to show them off... and it's already snowing this weekend... in Seattle... early November!
Post up what ya got.
My SQ5 setup:
Niche Misano 20x9 ET32, center bore 66.56.
Pirelli Scorpion Winter 255/45/20
Perfect fit, no significant visual difference in offset.
my stock rims were 21". I purchased 19" RIVA MX7 wheels with Falken winter tires. I would have purchased Nokian's (which are awesome in the snow btw) but 1010 Tires did not carry that brand.
I don’t have mine mounted yet but I’m using the factory SQ5 wheel with 245/50R20 Michelin Xi2 Tires. I had the All Seasons Michelin Tires that came with the SQ mounted on a machined Aluminum wheel with a clear coat. I’ll post a pic soon.
Funny snow in Seattle but none in Boise yet....snow level getting close though.

I like those wheels! I see the load rating for them is 1600 lbs, anyone know what the factory wheels are rated at? I know the tires are rated higher than that, like 1800-1900 lbs, and I will do some light towing so I wonder if these are a good choice? BTW if anyone can photoshop those onto a Florett Silver SQ5 that would be cool!

Really nice looking wheels. Where did you get them?
I just got my new rims and tires installed yesterday. A local tire shop got me a good deal on RSW gun metal rims and Pirelli Ice Zero FR tires. I had asked for the Scorpion Winters but they mistakenly ordered the Ice Zeros, which I didn't notice until after they were on. Not really a problem, as they both have good reviews. I went from 19" OEM to 17" winter rims, but upsized the tires to 235/65 rather than /55 so they don't look too small. They are a bit rumbly at the moment but hopefully the noise will lessen with wear.
