I find the 225 size way too big for Upper States/Canada snow conditions. You need thin tires that don't float. I would not go beyond 185 width. Remember, looks matters very little in the winter. I've driven Nokia(n) Hakkas for the past 16 yrs on FWD cars with absolute satisfaction. Cheap steel narrow rims with narrow tires is a recipe for staying on the road. You're not going to be pretty but, who cares, your car is always covered with calcium guano at any rate. My .02 worth!
