School me on these steelies as potential winter wheels

[IINCEPTIONII]

I'm looking at these as a potential winter wheel for my OBX and the price looks almost too good to be true. Would these not work? What am I missing?

17x8 and 139.7 spacing. For the price, why not wrap these with some snow tires for the Michigan winter?

Any feedback (including other recommendations)?

You could probably get a set of 5 take-off 16" base steel wheels (with tires and TPMS installed) for less than half that. Hell, I would sell you a set of 5 Big Bend take off wheels (with TPMS sensors and 13k mile tires) for $400 OBO. Located in Toledo.

The other day, someone was giving away his stock steelies for free!

Loud and clear, thanks for the input. Don't know why I got it in my head to explore Amazon when there's so much good help here.

If you want black you could get a set of the black Diamond steelies pretty cheap too.

Tempting offer, and I'd probably take you up if I was on the east side of MI. I'm in the Grand Rapids area, so you're a 3 hour drive from me-a little further than I'm looking to go for now.

We are likely heading out that direction next weekend, though I don't see how we could fit 5 wheel & tire assemblies in a 2 door...

Sets of 5 OBX 18in wheels seem to be selling for 400$ shipped on ebay.

Cant beat that with a stick for a winter wheel set.

Looks like something you buy at JEGS? Love all things steel wheels....
