Yes, I run snow tires every year.
No, Toronto weather dosen't justify the expense.
Maybe, still on the fence.

Who is running with snows this winter?

(11-27-2010, 10:14 AM)SVT-WGN Wrote: The SVT wheels to be installed on SVT-WGN (Focus wagon) next spring are 17". The correct size tire for this rim is 205/45-17 at $148 per tire. Instead over winter, I use a fifteen inch rim with a 195/60R15 tire which cost me $93.

If your SVT conversion includes brakes, you'll need 16" rims minimum to clear the brakes.

An alternative to SVT brakes is to go with the Focus Rally brakes which are slightly smaller diameter (same knuckle, though) and in fact can be cleared by 15" rims.
