Will my wheels hold up to the winter conditions?

[Blitted_Master]

I have a set of MiRo 398's on my car currently. They're painted white. Do you think they will hold up to a northeast winter? We get a lot of salt and whatever that crap is that they spray on the roads here in PA. I've had chrome rims in the past that I left on for winter and they were ruined. I'm not sure if painted wheels will be ok or if I should swap back to the stock wheels.

What do y'all think?

Dip them for the winter

I like that idea, but for the effort, I feel I'd be better off swapping to stock. I'm trying to be lazy but not sure if it will be ok.

Wheels lasting IMO is mostly dependent upon how much you’ll wash the crud off and how many seasons you run them. Any decent wheel should survive a season or 2 but regardless by season 3 or 4 they’ll be trashed. It’s just the nature of winter. I’m hoping my wheels survive their first winter. I’m gonna get actual winter wheels next year
