Winter wheels...
 
I was looking to get a set of black wheels and tires mounted for the winter.

I am on Tirerack and they have just a few black-painted wheels.

Here are two:

This first one is affordable. It has a lame center hub brand.

This second one is cool looking, a bit more expensive, but the problem is that they may not come in until November or December at the earliest, according to a Tirerack sales guy in an e-mail conversation...

Should I keep looking? I've never bought wheels before. Isn't it better to buy both on the website and have them shipped already mounted and balanced?
If not, what would you suggest I do? Also.. do I need 8" wheel or 8.5" wheel for Blizzak LM-60s?

Go with 8.5". The first style will be fine. For winter tires, you don't need expensive wheels. :tup:

If you plan to run 245, get 8.5. 225 if you run 8. You can also run 245 on an 8 if you wish too
