I'd love to, but it seems that I'm not smart enough to figure out which rims will fit over my sport brakes. Thus, i can't buy any winter tires yet...there aren't any that fit the current sport rims, nor do I want to change out summer for winter tires on a single set of rims.

Essentially, I need a cost effective solution. My ideal would be a set of cheap 18" rims (if they'd fit over sport brakes) and a narrower set of winter tires to match.

Blizzack has 19" fitments now, so you could buy someone else's take off wheels. Better yet buy someones 18" OEM take offs so you can get the narrower rim and tire which will be better for cutting through the snow.
