Well first of all, hoepfully the dealer didnt charge you $200/rim. Also, the Bullitts arent SVT rims, but regular Ford rims and as far as I know, the black ones are aftermarket rims. Could be wrong though.... Now as for tires, since you have another set already, why not swap rims out for winter and get some good street tires? Unfortunately I cant name any brands because I havent done much research on them (well have... but dont remember the good brands). Gagan
