Do you guys leave your rims on in the winter or take them off?
If you leave them on in the winter, have you had any problems keeping the rims in good shape?

Thanks.

HELL NO!!! The winter in the northeast SUCKS!
I put back on the OEM tires/rims for the winter.

The weather changes here so much. When it snows, the snow goes away pretty quick, but it is here long enough to possibly mess up rims. I was just curious if it was worth it to leave on chrome rims in the winter if you keep them clean.

its not the snow that will hurt it... ITS THE SALT!! SO even if it snows for a little bit and it goes melts away... in that time in sure they put salt on the roads.... so you need to keep chrome away from salt!! :p

Yeah the salt just eats away at the finish of your rims, even stock rims. I noticed along the edge of my stock rims, the salt has corroted the corners.
