We run 185/60 14 on our cars. Except for the ones that still have the dunlop winters that came with the car new. They seem like a decent tire but I don't like that they're directional so they never wear evenly rotating front to back...
I prefer to run narrower tires in the winter. I have 175/65 14 on mine. Some cheap rottella tires I believe. They work. They balanced out perfect and didn't require much weight. They don't work on ice like a studded tire would don't wear down in 3-4 seasons like a blizzak would. These cars are light enough you don't need an expensive brand name set of winter tires to get around, in my opinion.
