Even with minimal tread last winter I had no issues getting around. As you can surmise from my high KMs, I drive a lot and cannot believe how long they lasted. I bought them with about 70% tread and used them 5 winters and still had to run them until July this year to use up the last bit of tread. The Michelin X-Ice that are on these wheels were awesome and wore like iron. Oh yeah, they also come with TPS sensors and all 4 worked perfect when removed in July. They come with chrome nuts and wheel locks. I would throw them in the car as is and drop them somewhere for a reasonable price - or sell them locally. I don't want to get involved removing the tires and shipping them. I am certain they will get me through at least one winter as they are snow tire rated. I decided to try Michelin Cross Climates this year and had them mounted on my stock chrome wheels. My summer and winter tires were both worn and with 330,000 km did not want to invest in 8 new tires.

They strongly resemble the stock wheels that I see on a lot of 2013-2017 Nox. I have 4 aftermarket aluminum winter wheels I am no longer using.
