That is what I was suggesting, to have two sets of rims.

If you get the sport rims with the vehicle, you get summer performance tires. Buy a cheap set of rims with winter performance tires right away.

If you get the standard rims, you can buy larger rims with performance summer tires later, but you are stuck with the all season tires that came with the vehicle.
