I was looking into geting a new set of rims for my truck but living in Canada we get alot of snow which means they dump alot of salt on the ground so my question is does anybody have aftermarket rims that they keep on all year that can handle the snow and salt?

Yes, but they are designed for off road use, so the salt would be negligible. Although, we don't have salt in CO. Lots of sand so we know about replacement windshields, but no salt.

ive had custom chrome wheels on everything ive ever owned and no matter what after one winter with salt they get messed up.ive read about spraying wd 40 on them or coating them with vaseline.i now just swap them every winter with the stock ones.i would suggest all black wheels like the ones above or rockstars and leave them on all year.

No, in Colorado we just dump mag chloride on the roads and kill all the trees lining the roadway! :raar:
Adam, those are
American Racing Mojave wheels (http://www.americanracingwheelsinfo.com/American_Racing_Teflon_Mojave.htm) coated with Teflon, correct? To the OP: These wheels are Teflon coated and are probably highly resistant to salt. They might be just what your looking for.
