Snow (hopefully studded) tires

You're almost better getting a set of 14 or 15 inch steelies for the winter. That way, if you have a set of wheels you can just switch instead of having to pay to have the tires switched. Plus, 14/15inch tires are cheaper and you can get a shorter width (175 or 185 ideally for winter). I have 15's with general altimax arctic hp's (not studded). South of nokian's they're about the best bang for the buck (a little mushy but hey, it's a snow tire).

If you're looking at wheel/tires, look up a guy on here named 33OH, he used to be a vendor at one time. Between my brother getting 16inch steelies for his rsx, and my used 15inch steelies, the guy's saved us a pretty good chunk of change.

I have a question re steelies. How would I best go about getting (best match at the best price) a 5th steelie 'companion' for my 4 OEM 15" steelies? I want to have a full size spare mounted on it.
