damnit this sucks haha

Your best bet would just be to put them up for sale and then call Forged Performance stateside and see if they can get you a badass set of Volks with some big tires.

But yeah, you definitely don't want those 255s out back... talk about no grip.

Yeaaah, i don't want less grip. last night proved that, sliding like that was scary haha.

And I doubt forged ships worldwide + expensive shipping is expensive

Actually skinny little pizza cutter wheels are what you want on the snow/ice as they don't get what i call the ski effect. It must be hell driving with the sport wheels in winter thats one of the reasons i stored my car until april-may (winter here lasts forever) maybe they have merits as you're winter wheels with like a 235 tire all around.

The car is perfectly fine, I just have to watch out that I don't floor it while turning since then it will try to drift/slide all over the place.

for now I can survive with the normal tires but if it really starts snowing again weeeell i think il take my dad's megane CC with his winter tires

I do have a ipod nano. and I can wire up the aux but as far as I know you have to use the pod to change songs(well was like that on my megane) and I don't really want to start fiddling with my ipod while driving haha
