So I had Savini's installed and put the original summer run flats on them. Definitely a good choice - thanks all for the recommendations here. I should have done ceramic coating on them, but oh well - will pick a weekend this summer and do it then. Few days of driving, and they nice glossy finish is already gone
I have been doing more research into the winter set up. I don't know if you ever used this
https://tiresize.com/calculator/ but I find it useful. I can see that many are going with 285/45/22 set up on OEM wheels, but from that calculator I see that 285/40/22 all around is much much closer to the original staggered set up. I see quite a few options in All Seasons in that size (not much in winter) - but given the mild winters here in Mid Atlantic, I am thinking 285/40/22 will be a better set up.
Anyone with better understanding of tires and sizes want to chime in? And yes, I know that All seasons are not winter, but I am just making a judgment based on real weather and real world conditions. I am sure if I lived in Toronto, it would be very much different.
