What exactly are high end winter wheels? Why focus on the wheel and not the tire? Wheel gains you nothing. Run some Blizzaks on cheap steelies and call it good.

Semantics. Yes, the tire should be high end. The wheel should at least be the right size and shape. I prefer 18x8. A good looking wheel is a good looking wheel though, that's why I went with a nice one, since winters here can run from October to May.
