I am trying to decide what size snow tire to get. I want good snow performance and I thing a narrower taller tire would be better, but I don't want to sacrifice handling on dry roads.

I have 205/50/17 Pirelli 210s; that size is fine.

I also use 205/50x17 P210, narrower is slightly better in deeper snow.
