Default New winter wheels and waxed

Just put on the winter wheels and waxed the car. The tires are nailed so its a pain in the *** driving. Good thying the IS has such a good stereo system.
What do you think?

I went for Cooper 225/45/17 all around. You can hear them inside the car cuz they are nailed. Here in Icelad we get Ice on the roads and without the nails the car go iceskating. The noise is no problem cuz of the magnificent sound system in Lexus.
