Not a big fan of 19s in the winter and trying to dodge potholes- driving like I'm drunk lol
Typically, snow tires are installed on smaller rims (19") and are not installed in staggered sizes. Snow tires don't benefit from low-profile rims or wider rims. Snow tires are often narrower tires than stock summer tires. Wider is not better in this case.

Snow Tire applications are often the same size rims and tires both front and rear. If the appearance of the narrower rear wheels/tires (vs stock) look "anemic" under the rear fenders you may want to add some spacers. I had to do this with my X6M to fill out the wheel wells...
