Default WTB winter rims and tires (used if possible to save $)

I'm looking for some winter rims and tires for my 99. Blizzaks would be sweet, but any dedicated winter tire is fine (no all season please). If you've got any already mounted and ready to go that would be ideal. Please PM me with details if you've got a set of 4! Thanks!

My winter rims and tires are 4 donut spares.

These cars are horrible in the snow.

I'm not expecting it to be good, but with TCS and dedicated winter tires I've read many success stories here, and in harsher winter states even. Winters have been pretty mild the past 3 or 4 years here, and I'll only drive if I absolutely must

yes, these cars can handle well in the snow if you got the right tire. Blizzaks work great... I do have 4 stock style ta rims(just like the pic roscoe trickle posted) with blizzaks mounted on them. I do have to say the tires are pretty worn down and did notice that traction in 5"+ of snow was giving me trouble(new tires i could go through 10"+ of snow no problem). I would say you might be able to get through this season with them.. Where are you located?
