I'm a n00b, but did a search & didn't find anything this specific.
'07 Sedan. Bone stock for the moment (aside from a custom paintjob)
I'm hoping to add a mild drop to my ride something like the Pro-Kit from Eibach or H&R Sport Springs.
I'm thinking about going with a 15x6.5 wheel / 38mm offset.
I found a decent deal on these. They caught my eye because of the matte/satin black finish similar to my paintjob.

I'm curious if anyone runs the same aftermarket wheel/tire combo year round (summer/winter) on a modified suspension...? If so, what tire size are you using & what tire have you had the most luck with for winter use...? Does such a thing exist...?
My stock 185/60-15's using a decent all-season tire from BF Goodrich isn't as great as an actual "snow" tire, but it does alright in the winter here in Wisconsin. With the new wheels + modified suspension, could I get away with a 195/55-15? 205/55-15? Anyone else running a similar set-up faced with snow & ice each year provided I use a decent all-season tire?
Pic of my ride because I'm new here and just 'cuz... :)
