second set of wheels for snow tires

Does anyone else run a second set of wheels to keep your snow tires so you don't need to change tires and rebalance each winter and spring?

Yes.

I run my 19" 704M for summer tyres, and 18" 400M with European all-seasons (more snow-biased than US all-seasons).

Makes the ride better, fits over the M-Sport Pro brakes and I don't have to worry about damaging my expensive 19" wheels & tyres on dark, cold, wet pot-holed winter roads.

You may even be able to go down to 17" depending on the size of your brakes.

I run 225/45-18" 255/40-18" in the summer and 215/55-17" square setup in the winter. 4" of sidewall vs 4.7"
