I need a winter set for the new Si, thinking 215/50R17 snow tires, maybe Nokian or Continental, and 17x7.5 wheels. (it's hard to find 17x7 on Tirerack which seems more ideal). Anyone know a good website besides Tirerack for viewing wheels?

Are 215s ok on 7.5" wheels for winter?

Leaning toward these Rials. I think this is a digital image, not a real pic, and they look like 18s. But they're $140 and I had Rials before, seem very well made.

215/50 on a 7.5 wide wheel is a near perfect match.

THanks man!

The other wheel on Tirerack I like is the 17" OZ HyperGT GLT, but that's $360/wheel, which seems really nutty for winter wheels. :oops: I also hate to buy such an expensive wheel in a small size, but don't want to risk 18s in winter.

Here's another value priced, quality German designed wheel to consider:

I almost pulled the trigger on Alutec 18" Monstr wheels but they were out of stock for months. I've researched this brand and they are great for the money. Perfect winter wheels.

On a side note, the OZ HyperGT GLT are my favorite wheels. But they were out of my price range.

THanks, I saw that brand but knew nothing about them. Can't go wrong with German wheels for $140!

If I didn't like the stock Si wheels I might go for the OZs for summer, but I really like the 2020 wheels.
