Blizzaks. You may need to get new wheels if Tire Rack doesn't have a fitment for your stockers.

Ditto! We dont need winter tires in the Big Easy,
Just wondering, how well do C4s handle in the snow (with the low ground clearance)?

Welcome!

Thanks for the welcome and the info.

I saw on the Porsche website that they offer winter tyres for the wheels i already have :

http://www.porsche.com/usa/accessori.../n36/n99/n109/

Is it better to go 18 with new wheels and winter tires or will the Porsche offer be good enough for Chicago winter driving ?

Thanks !!
