    For Spring,Summer and fall I am riding on 16 " (factory rims) tire size is 225 60R 16 (2004 Grand Prix GTP)

    For the winter I want to buy some Multi-fit Steel Rim;s from Walmart or Canadian Tire you know the ones(cheap black ones)to mount for the winter.

    I believe I should buy 15 "Multi-fit Steel Rim;s for the winter"

    please correct me if i'm wrong...I don't want the 16 " rims and 16 " winter tires.

    Question# 1: what size winter tire do I buy for the 15 " Multi-fit Steel Rim?

    Question #2 Should I go with 16" Multi-fit Steel Rims ? and buy the 16 " winter tires?
    The snow is deep in Winnipeg Canada

    someone please advise

    Thanks very much in advance

    better make sure that the 15" wheels clear the brake calipers before you buy them.

    if i were you i would just buy 16" wheels and tires.

    ditto, just buy the 16's that way ur sure they fit. I think what u want is to same some dough with the 15 set up, but like mentioned try the fit first, if they clear calipers then u can use a tire sizer. go to this site and put in ur stock size and it will tell u what size u need for ur "new" wheels.....
