i still say no....but then my240 has a point...it really depends on where you live and the roads you drive on...i still use mine and i'm in colorado springs...i drive up and down hills a lot and it doesn't bother me...just be careful...that's the best advice i can give you...now, as i was saying....peas!

Mine as well wait if you have them off.  never know.. IN Jersey it's cold, but hasn't snowed yet. i'm sure it's that Murphy's law thing that guy posted awhile back.. one you put your rims on... it will snow.. doh! unless you live in non snowy areas..

I agree with Bomix, if you have them off you might as well wait atleast another month or so to put them back on. Sand and salt on roads can be very hard on custom wheels. It ruins the finish, and that is a big part of what you are paying for. Also, no matter how careful you are, you never know what might happen in snow. You could lose control and slide your wheel into a curb. If not that, you never know who will hit you.

like my240 said.....salt is the enemy! i'm sure they still use salt in MD (i grew up in Silver Spring) and it eats away at aluminum and clear coats just like rust! i'd wait.

GOD is the enemy... he invented snow.... nothing good comes from snow, it is cold, they make men have to salt and sand the roads, makes me stay in, the devil hates the cold and so do i, it is slippery, it leaves "snow dandruff or known as snow shit", PLUS
I MAKES WOMEN WEAR ALOT MORE! HOW THE #### CAN WE DROOL AT A WOMAN's breast hanging out of her tank top or bikini in the winter?
for women, when it is cold, it is harder for a man to get it up.
SNOW SUCKS AND WINTER SUCKS
