Wheels: DRW, D15 wheels, 18x8.0 +40, claimed to be a sturdy 25 lbs each.
Tires: 225/45R18 Studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta snows
Spacers: OEM 10mm rear spacer. I may use a 5mm spacer in the front to get the tire center closer to OE spec, but likely I won't notice the difference with snow tires on.
Rings: 73.1 > 60.1mm aluminum hub centric rings
Comments: These look close to the OEM design
. ~6mm of caliper clearance to the spoke, 33mm to strut from inner rim. Unfortunately these are dual drilled wheels and the vendor does not tell you you need reduced size nuts to use the outer spacing of 5x114.3 holes. Fortunately I had some splined lugs on hand. 17mm hex lugs won't work, the bore is to small for a socket.
They left the unused inner set of holes silver rather than the black finish of the wheel. But what did I expect for the cheapest alloys I could stand to look at? $152 eBay, $162 amazon.
The Hakkapeliitta 10 grips ice and packed snow well, I've not yet chugged through really deep stuff on this particular tire. But they do have a soft sidewall, and you really notice the marshmallow ride when switching from summer tires
