Try the Kumho Ecsta ASX's in a 275/40R17. They are great all season tires and do fairly well in the snow. They can be had for about 93.00 on the tirerack also.

I don't think they make much in a 275/45R17 anyway, the stock size on your WS6 is a 275/40R17

shaun

the kumho's would be good if you dont want a extra set of wheels.
the best thing to do would be what mean87ss said a get those wheels you would have a much biger tire selection for snow and all season tires and the tires would be cheaper.
go to tirerack and put in that you have a base ta and it will show you the tires you can use in a 16"

i fit 255/45/17 blizzaks on my wheels. They were a great tire too worth the money

245/45R17 is the smallest recommended of a 9" wide wheel

my 255 blizzaks were pretty much stretched as much as I would like to see. Had a rim guard too.

I'm not for sure on what my sidewall size was. I just know they were 255's. Might or been 35 or 40 it was awhile ago.

you have 275/40/17 thats probably why your lacking results

well the kumho's are on back order, supposedly they will not allow me to buy just 2 blizzaks because u cant have 275 in fron and 255 in rear ;(
every other 275 is like 160$ +

What? . . . did you call them. Just say I want to buy to tires. What does it matter to them what car it goes on . . .

I respect Tirerack can be difficult to sell tires they feel do not fit, but bottom line it's a sale and they should do it.

tire rack is stupid.

dude get yourself a beater for $500 it's not worth
wrecking your TA in the snow.

They insist that you buy four snow tires to be safe, but they should sell you two after putting you through a song and dance about it.

You can buy a stock set of rims for like 50-100 bucks..
