Default Which is better for winter time?

I live in MD, we get snow from time to time.

I will be using 02 RSX rims (205/55/16) but plan to get winter tires for them.

Would it be better to get 205 tires or 215 tires? I am thinking 215 might be slightly better for handling when its dry.

And if anyone knows of a place near Baltimore that puts on tires for cheap that would help too.

205 would be better for the winter. You could run a 205 up front and a 215 in the rear to keep with the staggered setup for a little closer to stock handling.

Just run the 205/55R16 all the way around. Keep in mind that the RSX wheels are not going to be hub centric for your car. It will create some vibration.
