How much is TOO much?

You would benefit from a triple pass radiator and a larger oil cooler. Radiator would help the most.

Also of note, this car is my daily-driver in Chicago. So it gets snow tires in the winter. Also not sure if there's a way not to over-cool the motor for winter usage.

I realize lots of this can be solved with another car, but let's move past that for now...

If you have a themostatic sandwich plate, the oil flow into the cooler will be reduced below 180F. Additionally, you can fashion a block-off plate to mount on the cooler to reduce airflow in winter.
