tires-2.5rs???

Hey guys, I just had my first snow day with my 2.5RS, and well I did a '180 and then slid sideways down a hill. Luckily my car is fine, but I need new tires. Right now I have stock wheels, and my tires are 205-55 R16's. I am told I can fit 225's on my car. Does anybody know if this is true?? THANKS

I'm going to be perfectly honest here. This is your first snowy day, you're lucky all you did was slide sideways down a hill. I'm entering my third snowy winter now on a rear wheel drive wagon with no weight over the bald all-season tires. I haven't lost control of the car in 2.5 years. Skill has so much more to do with handling than snow tires do. Take the car to a parking lot and learn how to control it before you invest.

Nah I'm use to snow, my last car was RWD and I got use to the snow with good all-season tires. The 2.5RS I just bought came from Florida and has Summer-rated, bald as shit, tires. I just need to get some w/ tread and i should be fine. I'm prolly going w/ Pirelli P6's, 225 55 R 16's any suggestions on All-Season tires???
