Winter Tire Questions
Winter is fast approaching and I want to swap my 17" wheels and performance tires for some smaller wheels and winter tires. I drive an '06 Mazda 3S.
What size wheel can I use with my rotors? I know 16" will fit, but will 15"?
What winter tires do you suggest? A lot of people recommend the Blizzaks, but reports are claiming that their technology is outdated. It seemed the new Michelin X-Ice are a huge imporvement over the old Alpine series.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!

As much as I hate the Dunlops that came with the car, I really like their winter tires.
I've run the Graspics the last two years on 15" steelies.
I dunno if I'd go to 15s if I had a 3, though.
