Once the temps dip to 40, I change mine. I am not jacking up my car to switch wheels in 20 degrees.

i keep my chrome wheels on year round...maybe thats why they are peeling and pitting and look terrible? I hate the idea of swapping wheels so the next set i get are not going to be chrome so i can keep them on year round and not have to worry even though i havent worried for the last 6.5 years.
