Justgot my set of wheels switched, I am a family man on a budget,so I cleaned up my steel rims I got from junkyard and painted them,put my plastic hubcaps back on,good for summer.$165,$150 for steel rims and tires came with them.$15 for balancing The tire store charged me I had 2 balanced.They had the Winterforce in P195/65/R15 about $80 each It is on my wish list. I also need a new windshield,sensors 102,134 135 I think thats right,without checking my Haines book,Any one know if tire rotation is critical?The 2 I got from the junkyard were not marked for there location the other 2 tires were my tires I had them mount they were marked.I heard about the steel belt direction shoud not be reveresed.I got my fingers crossed.Thanks for your time,Mike

You can get the WinterForce tire for $50 each from the TireRack. Sears has them for $70 each. I got a set last fall.

You can get rims up to about 18" (maybe larger) that will clear, you'll just have to get lower profile tires.
