Is there any reason I should not go with a 225/60/18 dedicated snow tire on my '13 SHO?  The load rating and speed rating are appropriate and comparable to the stock tires.  I was originally looking at going to a 235/55/18, but found a tire I liked in the 225 size.  Just concerned I'm going too narrow. 
'13 SHO, non PP, all other options.  Stock for now.

I have 235-50-18" Pilot Super Sports (summer tires) on TSW 18" x 9" Interlagos.  They are fantastic!  They don't wander like the 255 width Conti DW's. Winter tires in narrower sizes will handle just fine and be better in snow!

Thanks for the reply.  I'm just trying to figure out which tire I like the best based on the driving I will be doing this winter.  Lots of choices out there.
