Michelin X-ice XI2
 
Got these from the Rack a few weeks ago, decided to put them on before it snows again even thought it was 50 degrees today. The Tr Motorsports wheels look ok (for winter use), the tires ride well for a snow tire, hope it doesn't hurt the mpg to badly :)

Wow that has a lot of ground clearance. Will be good for snow use. The wheels are pretty sharp for just being the winter wheels. I think the '12 stockers might look a little better, but those aren't bad at all.

I like the reflection I see on the back of the Fit :)

Where in MA are you? I'm about half an hour south of 84 over in NY. I've run about every real winter tire- the X-Ice's aren't too shabby. For the money, I've had great luck with the General Altimax Arctic's. Just picked up a set for the Fit, and one for my WRX. They're studdable, which is iffy in NY (legal, but only worth it on ice. Or for ice racing :)), but nice in areas where you really need it (my in-laws' place in the mountains of CO).

That aside, hello white jealousy :) Mark W.
