Apologies if this is a dumb question but I am a newcomer to needing winter tires. Last season was my first time living near snowy conditions so I had a set of Blizzaks mounted on my F15 stock rims. I see most folks in this thread seem to prefer a completely separate set of rims and tires rather than just swapping the tires twice per year.

Any reason why that would be preferable? I can think of salt perhaps causing corrosion on the rims, but I typically wash my car as soon as I get down from the mountain (just go up for ski days, and back to wet but not snowy conditions for the rest of the time).

Thanks!
