If it is an Arc or Aero with the big brakes, then yes, you need 16" wheels minimum on the car.
You can see for yourself if you have the "big brakes": look at the brake disc in the rear. If there are grooves near the center that radiate out under the braking surface, you've got the ventilated rears, and thus the "big brakes".
You can look on ebay for extra wheels. Nothing says that your winter wheels need to be steel. Alloys, in the same or different style work as well.
