I'm in Minnesota and we have more salt on the roads in winter than we need. It eats or corrodes everything.

Having said that, if you want to keep your rims looking good it is a standard practice to go with "winter" wheels and tires.

I'd likely pass on the hub caps and just run the steel wheels open.

Also depends on how long you're going to keep it and if you're that concerned on how the wheels look
