Default Tires for the winter

Just wanted to confirm before i went ahead and purchased new winter tires.

Im going with Bridgestone Bizzacks
Rear 245/45/16
Front 205/55/16

This will be on the Stock 16"Rims

Will these sizes be fine?

For winter tires, stick with the OEM sizing, including the rears. This is the only exception to the "oddball" sizing for rears. Snow tires work better if they are just a bit narrower, so going with 225/50/16 for the rears will do just fine.

xviper is correct. The wider rear tires is no good for winter. Give me a call if I can help.
