For what it's worth, I talked with a friend the other day about wheels and tires. He drives a Nissan GTR with 20" wheels and 35 profile summer performance tires. He lives in Seattle and commutes to Portland about 20 times a year. I was concerned about wheel damage from the super low profile tires, and he says he has not had any problems in the couple of years of owning the GTR. He commented the rain performance was good, but snow was an absolute a 'no go' in Seattle. He had the car in the shop for some work and they had parked it outside overnight and it just happened to snow. Only about 1" of snow, and they were unable to drive it from parking lot to shop. They had to tow it... crazy. He looked into getting all weather tires, but decided against it for the couple times of year Seattle gets snow.
