The other advantage of sticking with the standard 235/65 is that your spare is a full match for your road wheels.

Not sure about where you are but around here, punctures and tyre damage occur all the time so having a spare that matches the road wheels is good insurance.

Looking at picking up some rims/tires off tire rack for the winter. Have some pretty harsh winters here.

Question is, I know that smaller width would result in more traction and better overall performance in the snow, so would 20 inch rims that are 9 inch front and rear be sufficient with good winter tires? Or would it be better to get 18 inch rims with same width?
