Stock tire purchase, need some input

Okay, I did a search to see if this has been posted but I couldn't find anything. I'm getting ready to purchase some new stock tires for the car, to make it through the Chicago winter. I'm curious as to what people have, what do you all suggest? Size wise, are you better of sticking with the stock size(205/60/15) or go with another tire, maybe (215/65/15 or 205/65/15). Any input will be greatly appreciated.

I understand everyone has rims, but all you need to do is answer this question.



(205/60/15) or (215/65/15) or (205/65/15)

That's all

None of those.

I have 225/50/16's on mine, no problems whatsoever, you should be able to do 225/55/15.
