Evan:  As Larry pointed out, conventional wisdom for winter tires is
NARROWER than what you run in the summer, e.g. 205/55/16 instead of
225/50/16.   Personally, I run the OEM 5 spoke 8" ET40 16 FUCHS wheels
over my BIRA System 1 brakes for the summer (this year with Falken
Avenis ST115 225/50/16's).  For the winter, I run A8 five spoke 7" ET37
16" with 5 mm H&R spacers (to clear the Brembo calipers) with 215/55/16
Pirelli Wintersport 210's.  I went a little wider than the correct 205
to get a bit more winter clearance (I'm running Eibachs and Bilsteins).
