T-bone has it right. Off with the alloys for the winter, on again in the spring.
I bent two (flat spots) of my Virgos several winters ago. The road was covered with large chunks of mud (off a construction vehicle), I wasn't able to avoid them all, hit one at about 55....turned out to be mud covered rock....or frozen mud.....two nice flat spots on my otherwise perfect Virgos.
Steel wheels from then on for winter driving.
