Ive been wanting snow tires on my car because of the poor handling in the snow and living in pennsilvania we see a fair amount of snow. I wanted to keep the OE 16in rims but tirerack is saying i am suppose to use the tires 205/50-16?? I think they might be a little to big?

So basically are these tires to big?
And is there any other size tires i can get with these rims?

Thanks

There are many more 205 options than the odd 195/50/16, but 195 is best. Wider is not better by design for snow...

Keep clicking/digging ;)
