What will fit my taste for winter setup?

[hyunsoo1803]

I'm getting ready for upcoming winter as I heard from few people that it will snow a lot this winter so I'm planning on getting a winter setup.

I'm no expert in sizes and offsets so I had hard time looking up @ tirerack so I would appreciate some advices on wheel offsets and tire. I heard blizzaks from bridge stone and ice xi is popular around here.

I'm not sure about the budget as of now but what is reasonable?

I currently have volks g2 with re-11's....yeap a shop helped me out with offsets

Anyways I'm looking for descent rims/tires. sizes preferred is 18-19.

P.S should I raise the ride height with winter setup?
