I have new wheels ready to go on. Bronze AX201's. Do you guys use your wheels in the winter? Or do you swap back to the OEM wheels? I live in Michigan, and the roads get very salty sometimes.

I'm sure they will be fine, I use my stock wheels for the winter with winter tires and save my good wheels for the rest of the year.
