just wondering what you guys are running for winter tire sizes. I'd like to go to a 16" or 15" wheel if it's possible. what sizes would work out to the same height as the 215/45/17's that are on it?

I may be wrong but I believe it is better to get a smaller tire as it will "plow" through snow better.

also depends on your location. lol, obviously in canada u want a skinnier tire. in the midwest, where u can snow here and there, but still have lots of dry roads to drive on, you may want a wider snow tire.
