Default Winter tires on the ES350 - downsizing? What do you do for your ES350 winter tires?

I'm receiving lots of suggestions to downsize the stock 215/55R17 tires to 215/60R16 for winter use. The two tires are almost identical in size, but the 16" wheel has more sidewall, more flex, and "should" have better grip? Not to mention they're cheaper even with 16" steelies. Anyone have an opinion on this?

What do you do for your ES350 for winter tires?
