Filling the wheel well with a 5x100 rim and Blizzaks

I got these for a great deal ($200 basically new) on the steely 5x100 (correct me if my terminology is wrong?). But damn, that 1" drop I have makes them a TIGHT fit. I rub going around corners, any bumps and so on.

But DAMN they STICK!!!! Took the family up to MT Hood today and was a damn happy camper on the roads.

Yup....the winter snow tires stick pretty well. They're a softer porous rubber. However if you run them in warmer temps, they'll wear out very quickly.
