    I've been driving a '96 850R wagon since March, and I love it. It came
    with 17" sporty rims and Yokohama 205/45ZR/17 tires which are getting
    worn. The handling and speed of the vehicle are impressive, but I am well
    past being a teenager, and I want to swap wheels and tires for something
    more comfortable.

    I am thinking of 16" rims and good all-purpose tires. We live in the San
    Francisco Bay area, so deep snow isn't really an issue. I drive on windy
    roads which are relatively well-maintained, but in the winter the roads
    get slippery and sometimes icy.

    Any suggestions? Are there some decent online places to buy wheel/tire combos?

    Many thanks,
    Butch
