Thanks for the replies. The reason I am getting new rims is to prevent the rush to get studded snow tires put on/taken off when the law allows. If I can do it myself it would be a lot easier.

Buying used wheels for my car seems impossible, the places I go say that they are all damaged from hitting curbs. I guess there are a lot of bad drivers out there. I have not found any after market 15" wheels I can afford, If I could that is what I prefer to use.

I see now that these tires are probably way too wide to not effect aerodynamics. I am going to install splats but I didn't want them to stick out from below the car.
