Snow tires is an old term, you want winter tires.
Get them on steel rims and use the proper length bolts.
Use all the same diameter tires, I'm not sure of the diameter, 17" I think.
Go to Tire Rack and get the suggested size, smaller rim and larger profile tire.

Or you could get a $1000 beater, and sell it in the spring.

If a set of BLIZZAKs won't be stopping you this winter, what will?
BLIZZAK Performance Winter / Snow tires feature high performance winter tread compounds molded into directional tread designs that provide thousands of biting edges to combine stop and go traction in snow with responsive handling in wet and dry road conditions.
BLIZZAK Studless Ice & Snow tires feature a patented MULTICELL compound that contains millions of microscopic pores to help grip ice without the use of studs.
BLIZZAK Studless Ice & Snow tires have been shown to stop a vehicle traveling at only 30 miles per hour an average of 35 feet shorter on ice than popular all-season radials...a distance of about two car lengths!
