Default Winter tires on AP2 wheels

Just wondering what my options for snow tires are, to fit a set of AP2 wheels that I have for winter?

Go to TireRack. Select "S2000", select "winter tires".

Odd. When I search for AP1 rims (16"), they give me a choice of 5 different types of winter tires. Perhaps you can try by size and winter tires. Or just go to winter tires and shop by the brands they come up with and see which brand has your size. TireRack designates winter tire sizing the same as you OEM sizing.
Most popular are the Blizzak line by Bridgestone, or Dunlop, or Michelin.

Just go with a package deal from them. 16" wheels and tires, that's what I did. Takes 15 minutes to change them out when I look out side and see the white stuff.
