Dumb question alert. I've seen lots of threads discussing the different tire options. Is there anything preventing someone from taking one set of tires from the factory (say 22 inch sport brights) and then simply buying an alternative set of rims and tires as a backup? (Ie the ats for winter driving) Ie there is no fundamental difference to the actual vehicle right? Just swap out the tires and rims and you are golden? Dumb question but I wanted to confirm.

Just make sure whatever you're using as replacement has adequate load rating.
