Winter Tire Question.

Ok, I've got the stock SVX rims, 225/50/16, as everyone knows...

But what's the smallest winter tires I can put on it? can 195's fit? 205's/215's?

I'm trying for the whole "digging through snow" factor on these..

Thanks!

I have 205/55-16 Hankook W-404 tires on stock wheels. They barely fit on the wheels....I wouldn't go any narrower than 205. This size is slightly shorter than stock as well, but they work well in the snow.

Go with 205/60-16's...narrow and a bit taller. That's going to be my next winter tire.
