    Steel wheels for winter tires?

    I am looking for a set of traditional steel wheels for my 2006 Acura RL. I would rather mount the snow tires on those than on my OEM wheels, so that I can easily change them myself. Any good places in LA/OC area to go shopping for those?

    Not NSX related but you can buy steel wheels in 17" just about anywhere, you might consider some used aftermarket wheels as well since they will look better, are lighter and are cheap and plentiful in places like craigslist etc.

    Remember you are looking for 5X120 bolt pattern so a lot of BMW wheels will fit - 8" to 8.5" width with a +40-ish offset.

    In the end, I bought Acura OEM wheels with Michelin's PAX system, eBay item #380299448897. I can now swap between two sets of wheels as conditions dictate. My RL didn't come from the factory with Michelin's PAX system though, so I hope suspension tuning won't be an issue if I put these wheels on the car.
