So I'm looking at snow tires & I'm seriously considering going from a stock 205/55-16 to more of a 195/55-16 (slightly undersized).

I have had alot of experience with snow cutting quality of a narrower tire.
I don't want to loose too much of the dry handling ride & grip though.

The other thing becomes finding good tires in narrower widths in a 16" size...
Has any one done this & did you like the result?
