i recommend you get a FWD beater dd + snow tires if you're going to drive in snow conditions if applicable...

i run WS60's (better perf in snow vs LM60) on my dd.

I have a jeep grand cherokee, but the driver's side window broke, windshield wiper came off, there's a squeaking sound coming from the front end (bearing or universal joint), and I plugged up a head gasket leak after even replacing it and the head. (and it's still slowly leaking coolant). CEL has been on and inspection comes up in May. Light won't stay off after turning it off, and the code is due to an addition of a clutch fan after disabling electric fan. It's just one thing after another and I'd like a backup plan.

That said, I am totally clueless when it comes to LM60s, WS60, LM-25s, offsets, spacers, staggered, 18x8, 18x9, +42, +38, etc -- I just plain don't know what combination will fit. It's all foreign to me.

I'll do some more searching through the threads, but it's pretty frustrating.
