I found an aftermarket winter set of 19" wheels and tires from TireRack. Not available on the website, but I did some digging into the manufacturers and then called TR. Placed order by phone. Full set delivered. I installed about 2 weeks ago and they have performed great in a crappy stretch of weather here in New England. Snow, slush, rain, salty roads. Mid-winter conditions and it's only November!
Anyway... went with a square setup
BBS CI-R 19x10 ET25 112BCD Black with polished lip (grey is another choice)
Bridgestone Blizzak 275/40R19 all around (it's a V-rated tire, but that's fine for everyday driving in the winter around here).
Entire set, wheels, tires, sensors about $4k.
Have put about 600 miles on so far. Ride is great.
