good deal on snow tires for 19" wheels?

[obiparis]

Hi,
Do you guys know where's the best place to get snow tires for my 19" Y-Spoke wheels? I posted them for sale but if no one's buying them, I may decide to put snow tires on and use them as my winter setup. What do you guys think? I know it's 17"/18" will be a better choice.

We don't have too many choices for 19" snow tires. I'll be using them for ski trips to Tahoe/Mammoth during winter times (maybe a few days a month in winter). I'm in So Cal. I have a set of 20" style 87 with Diamaris tires for everyday driving.

What's the best/cheapest place to get 19" snow tires? It's hard to find used ones for that size. And it seems quite expensive to just buy the whole new set of 19" tires just for those ski trips.

Any opinions/comments? thanks a lot.

make sense to keep the 19" for winter setup? I think I'll probably have less hassle to keep the 19" with new snow tires than to sell them and get 17/18".

yes, from what i've heard, 19's with snow tires work just fine, plus you'll be looking good.
