I just wasn't sure if I should get a dedicated winter setup or I could get away with mounting winter tires on the 333 style wheels. Like I said I'm still a newbie when it comes to these sav's and I appreciate everybody's help and advise especially since it will be driven 90% of the time by my wife and 7 m.o. daughter

You're welcome. I bought a used set for winter, which are replica 214s with virtually new Pirelli Scorpions. I felt it would be easier than the stress (on the rims and TPMS) of mounting and remounting tires only. Although they have a little curb rash (which I attempted to repair), they were only $1000, which included one newer spare. I haven't driven on them yet, so I have no opinion on the Pirellis yet. It's all a matter of preference.
