 full set of tall Bridgestone Blizzaks,to get me through the really deep
stuff.
 With the current 14" wheels,I believe the tallest tire is a 215/70,but there
 are a few more choices when you go to 15s. My salesman @ Tire Rack says both
 Audi Turbo wheels and several Mercedes wheels have the same bolt-circle,but
 wasn't sure which wheel had the offset closest to what will work.He does have
 new steel wheels to fit the Audi 5000 TQ and 200 TQ,but not the Mercedes.
 Anyone know,or have experience with this? I really don't want to spend the
 extra $$ on 15" alloys just yet,especially for the type of winter use they'll
 be sure to get. TIA !

get a set of audi turbo spares (they're 15" steel)
or get some 15" steel wheels off of a '97 up Passat.....
