I was speaking to a tire dealer in my area, and he suggested looking at reducing the winter tires from 16 inch to 15 inch for my Subaru Legacy GT Wagon. I am now running on Bridgestone RE92s - 205/55/R16
Other than being cheaper, he said that the thinner tires would also be safer.
This is my first time getting winters, so I've never heard about this.
Is this Ok to do? What do you guys suggest?
As well, my current all-seasons are rated H (suggested by manufacturer). Should my winters also be H rated, or can I go lower to Qs (I am looking at Michelin X-Ices)
Thanks!!
