I'm in the NE, so lots o snow, but won't get them till spring.

Can ya recommend a size? I think the stock size is 225/55VR16.
Whats the range those 16" chrome wheels can do?

Talking

TireRack.com site can provide you with tons of info regarding available tires, reviews of same (both by TR and customers) and, if dealing with someone by phone, how much oversize you can go w/o adversely affecting your speedo/odo too much (tho that's actually easy to calculate) and whether or not you'll have clearance problems.
