As a counterpoint to the Michelin PSS, I have Bridgestone S04 Pole Position tires and have been very happy with them. Dry and wet performance has been excellent.
Have General Altamax Arctic ready to go on them, these tires are great for the price.
The GENERAL ALTIMAX ARCTIC are pretty good for the Canadian winter. They have some very good ratings on Tire Rack. I have 17 inches for winter.
They're sort of expensive I think, but the Bridgestone Battlax S20 is really nice in the wet. I had Pirelli Diablo Corsas and moved away from them specifically because of their poor performance in the wet.
Saab with Potenza RE970AS Pole Position tires. Best 3 season tire IMO.
Myself I am on stock breaks with upgraded components. I am running 18x8.5 235/40/18 Bridgestone(RE71R) VMR v810 One thing is when or if you lower the car the 8.5 at ET45 wheel might rub.
Stock bridgstones suck in the snow, the best systems can't help wrong tires for the conditions. 18" X-ice3's, have PP and Jb1 power and the traction systems are very impressive in my opinion. The car limits the power aggressively to maintain traction and control even in very slick conditions (good thing).
I have blizzak WS80 215 55 R16. I love them. Just waiting for some snow here in the Midwest .But they handled very nicely in a downpour earlier this week.
I'm running 225/60R16 General Altimax Arctic on aftermarket alloy wheels. 15's are definitely too small, my 16's barely clear the caliper
I have had a few sets of blizzacks, and while they were great on slick roads, I found they were not good going through a few inches or more of snow and were terribly "mushy".
