Default winter tire sizes for ap1 wheels.

im looking to pick up a set of winter/snow tires to mount on my ap1 wheels.

right now i have toyo proxes 4's on the ap1 wheels and i dont think they are too great in the winter/snow/slush/rain.

I'm running Dunlop 3d fronts, M3 rears, fricking amazing in the snow

I agree with ZDan, The Dunlop tires work really well on the S2K. If I can help with the tires let me know.

I just got a set of the Blizzak ws60 and was curious as to if they had a selective operating temperature. What I mean is that are they designed to work below 40 and not be used above 40 or do they need to be broken in before they enjoy water. only reason I ask is because I was driving out of two stores and hit small puddles and the rear beat the front around the corner(classic oversteer). I have them on stock ap1 wheels in ap1 stock sizing...
