Default Winter Wheels

Looking for some advice. I have a 2014 Citadel with the 20" polished wheels. I live in Wisconsin and am looking for steel wheels to install snow tires on for the winter to save the polished wheels from salt damage.

What does everyone recommend or what have others done?

I just use a set of cheap 18" aluminum rims with Blizzaks for winter on my R/T.
They are fantastic for Minnesota.

I'd be happy to sell my OEM 18s for $200 but you'd have to come and get them. :-(
Too bad about the Packers last night. 'Hawks looked TOUGH.

Do you need to reset the speedo when swapping 20's for 18's? Seems like the overall height remains the same?

I was told, no, you do not because exactly for the reason you stated; there is little to no difference in the circumference of the tire.

Awesome, i bought Blizzak 18's before I came up with the idea about switching to a '14 w/20's! No need to drive to TR to exchange them!

I am actually looking for a set of winter rims. Would you ship north of the border in to Alberta? I would cover cost of shipping of course? Not sure where in US you are located.

I also have a set of 20" polished OEM wheels and tires from my 2013 R/T that I would like to sell and get out of my garage. Let me know if anyone is interested.
