I ran 18's last winter here in tn did well but the salt they use on the roads can be harsh if you dont take care them.

Looks like you're the fool... why not hold off on ordering them or just use the wheels you have now for winter driving before you ruin the nice new ones?

I'd rock the stockers in the winter.
Too many possibilities to screw up wheels...pot holes, frost heaves, ice + curbs, salt and other chemicals.
But that's just me.

18s are too much rim for this lil car. and those 5 spokers are very euro until you see the odd rivets which are very japanese /cheap ricetastic (imo) not quite at home on a lil japanese box. i'll be rollin on some nice rims in a while 17x7 10 spoke riax's hyper black centers with polished lips. on yoko avs es100's . oh yeah and don't run hubcaps roll on blackouts. lol . but hey that's what i'm doin.

My P-Zero's(all-season) on 18" Kazera's are coming off in a couple of weeks. The TireRack says these tires have excellent wet weather traction. Can't prove it by me.
Wouldn't even consider running them in snow. Keep your stock wheels/tires handy, you may need 'em. The sand/salt mixture on the roads up here in Connecticut is murder on alloys. You won't be happy in the spring.
