My beater is dead...

Ok guys so the winter beater is dead and gone and now I need a winter wheel and tire setup for the G. I've decided that I want to get the Bridgestone Blizzaks.

Is anyone running this tire on the OEM 19s in the stock tire size? How is the traction? I have a set of 20s on the car now so the stock wheels are just sitting in the basement and I can use them for a winter setup if I can. Just hesitant to run a low profile tire in the winter but if it works then I would do it that way.

If I had to buy a winter wheel setup, I would probably want a set of 18s. I am assuming I should keep a staggered setup so 18x7 front and 18x7.5 in the rear was what I was thinking with a 215/50/18 front and 225/50/18 rear. Am I correct in this assumption? Also what offset wheels should I be looking at and can anyone suggest a good place to buy them from?

I tried searching but the info is kind of all over the place and do not clearly answer the questions I needed answered. Thanks in advance for the help guys
