Winter tyres: Audi A3 17-inch vs 16-inch
I have an Audi A3 sportback FSI currently with 225/45 R17 94W tyres. My local garage is able to obtain some 16-inch alloys fairly reasonably. What winter tyres would you recommend for these?

Quality feel from behind the wheel. More practical and spacious than standard A3. Impressive choice of engines including excellent TFSI turbocharged petrols.
