Default Winter Setup - Pls Double Check Proposed Setup

Hi all - Crossfire newbie here.

I want to run Michelin X-Ice XI3 winter tires but in order to get a reasonable price, I need more common sizes than the OEM Crossfire sizes.

I believe I have come up with a wheel & tire combo that will work. I’ve attached details comparing OEM to Proposed for front & rear. I would appreciate it if forum members could double-check what I’ve come up with to make sure I’m not overlooking anything.

In a nutshell: I want to run 16” wheels and narrower tires for best snow performance. I’ve taken care to pick tire profiles that result in nearly identical to OEM overall diameter. There is also a visual ‘offset aid’ with proposed wheel overlayed on OEM wheel to check for suspension interference.

Chime in! I’d like to get some other eyes on this before I pull the trigger on the purchase.

Thanks.
