Mine are Generals, not Nokians. Sadly my pockets are not deep enough right now for those. Besides, it only snows a few times a year here.

I also went with slightly taller than stock sizes. 215/50/17 and 225/55/17. I gained about 1/2 inch of ground clearance and the rear is a bit narrower. So dry pavement performance will suffer. But snow should be a blast.

Two years ago I had the pirelli something something 240's in 245/35/18 on the rear. They were OK but nothing great. They came on a set of turbo twists that I have since sold.
