Being an Aero, I seem to recall that he may not be able to fit the brakes into a 15" rim. In any case, use the smallest rim diameter you can and get a narrowest tire patch (as advised) for best snow performance. If you want to compromise between best snow performance and not completely screweing up your dry road performance between snowstorms, go with something in between. The key is getting the winter tires on there... -Fred W
