Default Best tire or best size (...or both)?...

Best tire is too subjective and depends on what kind of conditions you drive in. As far as size goes, 205/50 is considered to be best by some, since it is a narrow tire and cuts through the snow better. I run 225/45 LM-22s on my OEMs. I live in Denver, which is mostly dry during the winter. I have no problems on my weekly ski trips with this tire/size.
