I do year round DD it. I want to get winter tires. I am trying really hard to get that guy in Pittsburgh to ship his wheels to me because they have winter tires on two and AS on the other two for like $300 which would be cheaper than buying 4 winter tires, and his tires should last at least one winter. If I can't get him to sell me his I'll keep looking on the forum till around november, and if at that point nothing has come up I'll just buy winter wheels from tire rack or something and have the star specs taken off.
