Default Torq Thrust Ms vs Road Salt

Living in New Jersey and having road salt I am quite cautious about driving around in the salt. I absolutely hate looking at my z28 with the stock wheels. Have anyone ever run the ttms in the winter with road salt everywhere? How do they hold up? Thanks

Why not just keep your stock wheels as winter wheels and get your new set for summer (can also get summer tires).

Not like the stock 16"s fetch a high sale price.

I would listen to Necron. Why put a nice set of wheels through that mess?. Especially if you go with a polished version of TTM. Would be a disaster. Having two sets of wheels in that situation is the best choice. Even though I store my car for the winter (Chicago)..I still switch out my Billet Street Lites for my stockers. Plus it gives me time to clean and polish over the winter.
