Default Summer is coming, pics of my new wheels

Ok so yesterday i finally got my new wheels on my baby, bye bye snow tires As my car is a daily driver they have served me well this winter, alltough we haven't had too much snow this year, but a lot of icy conditions. Looking forward to driving with some real performance tires on, as i bought the car in late October last year and have yet to drive it on anything but my Nokian snow tires.

Here's a pic with my Nokian snow tires on OEM rims:

Yeah I noticed that too, i think it's because in the pic with snow tires the car is dirty, it's like the color changes or something when it gets dirty, also the weather was not too brigth that day. The second pic was taken right after i washed it earlier today, and it's a nice and sunny day.

And by the way,red is a high maintainance color, car is in desperate need of a polish after the winter

On snow or dry ice the studless tires are just as good if not better, wet ice on the other hand is totally different story..... It has owned me a few times in past years.
