I forgot to mention that with option #3, by using a smaller rim diameter, you need to pick taller sidewalls on the tire (i.e.: /45 and /50 ratios), which will give you less trouble with the huge potholes that are hidden under the icy/snowy roads in winter. Another plus for #3

You have a good point. Especially considering that I don't race my car, I'm mostly enjoying it on back roads at safe speeds.

However, the performance on the snow of an A/S is noticeably worse than a winter tire, although it won't be the first winter that I drive in NJ with an A/S equipped car.
