Default My IS350 Winter Package From Tire Rack

So they were out of the JH3 winter package. Brandon at TR offered up an alternative so I went with that.

17x7 Sport Edition E3 rims. Look pretty good.

Went with Blizzaks LM25 225/45/17 in front 245/45/17 in the rears

I'll be sure to update this post when it comes in and the tires/wheels are on.

Cost me $1162 Shipped. So it was a pretty reasonable package. No tire sensors. Figured for a wheel set that will be on for 4 months, that I wouldn't spend the money on them. I hope I don't regret it. But just bought the car last week so I need to limit my expeditures....

Those look decent. I did the same thing when I lived in MN and owned the 330i. No sense in spending a bunch of money on the winter wheels, with how short an amount of time they're used, and how much abuse they could [potentially] take. The important thing is that the snow tires are good.
