Right there with you! Same wheels, got Continental WinterContact TS850Ps on instead as Vancouver winters are relatively light and I wanted better dry/wet performance.

235/60R18 Michelin X-Ice on dealer supplied rims. I think they look great and the ride is quiet and smooth. I have not had a chance to test them in deep snow. Please note I have the side mirror auto retract turned off and the front wipers in the upper parked position.

Beautiful wheels. Really love that bronze it's just the right hue. Any more shiny and it probably looks like gold which I am definitely not a fan of...but wow - awesome look.

As I mentioned to jdmls in the previous post to yours, I am 100% into these bronze wheels. Really pops on your Red. Now I'm seriously thinking of replacing my black with these. As I mentioned above I totally hate gold color, but this bronze color is perfect. Excellent.

Thanks! I'm really happy with how it worked out and I'm thinking of replacing my summer wheels (the OEM A-Specs) with bronze wheels as well. This particular model doesn't come in 20" or 21" so I'm considering the Enkei TSR-X but it's a definitely a bit a flashier so I'm not totally sure if I want to pull the trigger. https://enkei.com/shop/wheels/tuning/tsr-x/ has a video and it's a glossy bronze so definitely not a gold look but the gloss might be a bit much.
