Tire size question?

I'm trying to decide on what size tire I should go with...

I've got a '97 SE with stock rims, and was going to get either:

215/55/16 -OR- 225/50/16

I live in Ohio, so i'll be driving through snow occasionally...

Any thoughts?

On my 99 SE rims...

after my 215s wore down I mounted 225/50 16 and that size is mint. much better handling/ride comfort/breaking. It looked FAT as well. It had a good looking "bulge"
