Skinny is definitely where its at. But if you can't afford them, or don't want to bother with a second set of tires (like I do), a high performance all season works pretty well as an alternative. The Bridgestones I have now are pretty awesome, and for being the stock 16" wheels, I can go mostly anywhere with 90% confidence; including driving in the recent blizzard. (I HAD to try them out!!) I can't say the results were good when the whole 11 inches was on the ground the next morning, but up to 4-5, they were impressive, even in unplowed conditions.
