man i was to get rear tires again for my car i would get some 225’s 60’s…the biggest u can go before ur speedo changes
thats 20mm extra of tread
Best: Tercel, Corolla, Sentra, any other little beater to drive while your car sits comfortably in a garage so it doesn’t rust to shit.
In snow, narrower is better.
185/60/16 would be awesome, but the stock size is fine. Look for Nokian Hakkapelitas or Bridgestone Blizzaks… there are quite a few other good winter models.

i have also heard that thinner is better, but why. i forgot the reason.
cuts into the snow cuz its thinner. less surface area less spin i assume?
less area to cover, so you can “cut” through the snow easier… so if the wheels are wider, you also need a lot more weight in order to get some traction, otherwise you would be sliding all over the place…
Wider tires will just push the snow, make a wall and then your stuck.
I bought a set of Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3 last winter from a guy who pulled them off his Bimmer. Awsome tires and maybe the only Z speed rated winter tires you can buy.
