Hey guys. I was wondering what your thoughts are on using the 17" OEM rims and tires as a winter setup? I've gotten caught in the snow with my 19" and I never want to go through that again. For those of you with the 17 inchers and stock tires, how safe do you feel in the snow/ice/sludge/rain?

It seems that Blizzaks are highly regarded but I want to same some cash since it only really snows about 4 weeks out of the year total here in Oklahoma.
