I'd recommend getting AP1 wheels as a dedicated winter set.

Just like what everyone else said. AP1's.

Why, well 16 inch tires are cheaper than 17's.

More side wall incase you bump a curb or hit a pot hole.

And AP1 wheels are cheaper than AP2's.

In fact, 16" tires are much cheaper than 17's.

if you are just looking for wheels to run during the winter, AP1 all the way. why spend that extra money on "beater" wheels. save the extra money for some really nice summer wheels and tires.

I have a set of AP1 wheels for sale if you're interested.
