Default winter tire set up help plz~!~!

hey guys~!
i just got ap1 wheels for my winter tires..and trying to get a winter tire from tire reck.
but they do recommand front 205 55 and 225 50 rear.

i just curious isn't winter tire should be all same size? which is 205 all around?
thought thinner was better in winter..

should i go for what tire rack says or i can go 205 all around?

and what winter tire you guys recommand? nice and affordable price...

your making this harder than it should be. if you put a different sized sidewall tire on your car your speedo will be off. again, just stick with oem ap1 tire sizes

there are other places besides tire rack to buy tires

The options on the S2K would be 205/55R16 all the way around if you get a lot of snow or 205/55R16 front and 225/50R16 rear.
If I can help just let me know. Both fit and work fine.
