I've used Michelin X-ice tires (245/45R18) on some low cost alloy rims both of which I purchased from TireRack several years ago. I use 25mm H & R spacers on the rears. These tires work great in both ice and snow which were well tested this past winter. I would highly recommend the Michelins. The Michelins were on sale when I bought them and included a $70 rebate. This is the third winter I've used the Michelins.
The 25mm spacers bring the tires in the same relative position as the stock 19's on the sport model so these tires look good on the car.
