I got a set of LM 32 blizzack tires on a set of 18inch black a7sport rim square set up from tire rack(shout out to forum member KFULL for the recommendation and your response to my questions). These tires are great! I was scared as hell during the first real storm we got here in NY (6inches) but as soon as i pulled out of my parking spot these tires put my fears to rest! I was cutting through packed snow without a issue. I cant believe how well these tires perform, by far the best mod on my z!

I am running the same tire on 19" OEM Rays and having the same experience. What a great cold weather snow tire without giving up your ride or handling. They are much better than the Hancook Snow Bears I have ran recently, especially in the road noise and handling area.

I would have done the same but the potholes in NY are no joke during the winter time. Some streets have craters that are unavoidable, so i decided to play it safe and get my winter tires on cheaper rims to avoid rim repair in April. I would love to see pictures if you can.
