Re: need info on winter rims and tires...
I would not recommending 18" rims for winter tires in Michigan...the roads are too pot holed. Try to find some 16" or 17" rims and then buy snowtires with a close profile. i wouldn't worry about speedometer too much. I'd be more worried about getting stuck, salt, and a$$holes who can't drive in ice and snow. The earlier advise -- buy a beater -- is excellent, especially if you love your Crossfire. I loved my TR6 back in the old days but ran it 8 winters until it was see-through fenders. Ain't gonna happen to my Crossies. These girls are garage queens all winter.
