I was thinking of doing the same thing. Just purchased an Aero a couple of weeks ago and I don't see these 17" wheels performing well in snow, although the dealer thinks they'll be fine. Looking at Tirerack, I was thinking about 16" tires on new rims as if I had an Arc. I live on Long Island and last winter was so mild that I never bothered to swap my Volvo with its annual set of winter rubber. The 16"s are less than the 17"s and I'm not a spirited driver, especially in the winter, so, I figure that I will be fine with 16"s. If I pull the trigger on the wheel/tire package, that's about $900 plus shipping. If this winter is mild...ouch!
