Welcome to NICO

Please don't shout.

Typing in all caps is shouting

I can hear you

I'm on my 3rd set of Bridgestone Turanza & very happy with them.

Of course we don't get as much snow here in New Jersey as you do up there but then again they probably do a much better job at snow removal up there.

If you drive smart and stay on plowed roads you should be ok. Use a front wheel drive car when really bad weather is expected.

Yay, another Montrealer

I can't help with those sizes since I have a coupe with the 19s.I installed 17s with 225/55/17 if I remember correctly on all 4 wheels.

Just don't go cheap with the winter tires, the G has a lot of power and you need good traction. I bought Michelin Pilot PA3s. There pretty good. They were around $800 CAN. (I don't know exactly since I also bought the rims with them ($1200 CAN)
