Sherwin, thanks for putting this together and offering it to forum members first.

Second, any chance of doing just the 4 steel wheels as a set for those of us who want to make another tire choice? Thanks!

I am by no means trying to be derogatory in any manner, and I appreciate the effort you are putting in, but this doesn't appear to be a particularly good price for such a setup.

The wheels from your local smart dealer will run roughly $350 (depending upon your state sales tax).

Blizzak LM-18's or 190 Snowcontrol's will run another $350 or so shipped from Tire Rack (again, depending upon your location).

Mounting and balancing at your local shop will be another $75.

Total is approximately $775, ready to mount.

This package being offered doesn't include the TPMS, nor will personal setup. I keep track of my pressure weekly, and the only downside with be the orange indicator light smiling at me on the dashboard.

Wheels on sale

Just noticed Tire Rack has 2 different alloys for the smart @20% off. Makes a package of 4 wheels and appropriately sized Blizzaks under $800 delivered.

Good news if you've been hanging on the fence about a winter tire package, especially if you don't have a 4wd alternative!

I have no connection with the company and have not yet made a purchase from them, though I will if finaces allow...

Do they offer the Blizzaks in stock sizes? I just checked their winter tire selector for the smart and came up with nothing.
