This ^ is exactly why I went with steel rims for my winter tires. Don't even need to be sliding around just driving through loads of slush for it to gather and freeze in the spokes. Makes for an interesting drive if it freezes in there.
I also went with a 16" wheel so it gives me a bit more sidewall to protect from raised ice and help cut through deeper snow.
