I live in Toronto as well and I bought Pilot Alpin PA4's. Great snow/ice tire but also very good on dry roads (75% of the time). I went with OEM size on my F Sport rims.

I'm from Oakville, and I'm rolling on Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9. These are Nokians studded option and are a fantastic tire... but not leagal here.(you run the risk of the ticket)
They have another option Hakkapeliitta R2 which is a non studded option. I have been pleased with the performance of these as well.
I also mounted these on the OEM wheels and tire is a 225/40/18
