does it get below 50F in winter? then they'd be worth the money.

the thing that im sure most people dont realize is that winter rims/tires aren't that big of an expenditure. sure you have to buy an extra set of steelies w/ tires, but while youre running your winter setup, you're not running your summer....so all your tires last essentially twice as long.
