Default should I?

should I put my new foose nitrous on now? The only thing that worries me is the road salt. The rim is a metalic black with a polished lip. My stang is my daily driver, but it gets washed every other day. If I do put it on is there anything I should do to it? (ex. Protectant?)... Thankyou!

If you have salt on the roads, doesnt matter where you live. I would not put those on until the roads are clean!

If you need new tires now get some snow tires on your stock rims, save the good ones till summer.

No, my stockers only have 3k miles on them. I just really want my new rims on. I figured if I keep getting my car washed every other day it won't be too of a deal, but idk I don't want them ruined!

I daily drive my GT500. If it snows tomorrow then I will be driving it in the snow. Alot of people think that's crazy, oh well. If you want your rims on now, do it. Just take care of them.
