Ok so i had to get winter tires after i got a hole in my all seasons, so i just put them on my stock steelies. anyways winter is about to end, and i'm going to need to get some new rubber, now my question is, is it ok to just use the same rim, and keep switching tires every winter and spring, or should i get diffrent steelies for my summers and for my winters.

its ok for the wheels but not the tires, and to just throw out the tires after one season(if there is still a good amount of tread left)is a waste

i will not throw them out, i will just keep them in my garage and put them back on the next season

Just go buy a second set of rims. I guess you could buy another set of steelies, but if you're going to spend the money, you might as well buy alloys. You can probably snag a set of OEM wheels for $300-$500 with some tires off this board or one of the others, or just get a set of rims. Its not good for the tire to keep pulling them on and off, it stretches the bead out.

yeah, thats what i was getting at, not good for the bead, after a while, youll have sealing problems and they wont hold air as good
