Well, well, front wheel drive... (I can't keep track of stuff, these days.)

If you really want to "snow tire" the car, I think 4 tires all around
is the only way to go, with FWD vs RWD.

You don't want "bigger", as in lower aspect ratio/wider, you want
taller and more narrow, as in 60 or even, 65 series.

What size tire, exactly, are on your D's car now? That would be
a good clue.

Edit: I just re-read your first post with tire size on car: I would still
go for that size but in a 60 series tire. They should fit fine and be
real snow biters, vs the 50 series. The speedo may be off a touch,
but no biggie. GL, mD
