2025 C43 19" winter tire options?

Hi everyone... our new C43 will be showing up at the dealer soon - unfortunately here in the upper Midwest, snow could likely be soon to follow. My wife's current 2018 C43 handles well in the snow (18" tires) with all seasons. I am looking for recommendations for 19" winter/all season tires that will work well in the snow - or at least work much better than the performance tires it comes with.

I would not be adverse to getting "winter only" rims with the tires for winter - would make switching out much easier year to year.

I think the 2025 version is pretty much the same as the 2024 (and I think the 2023) - so I am hoping someone else had a similar question and was able to find a great solution!

Thanks in advance!

I thought you could use the W205 winters on the new one? Confirm first and if confirmed, shop winter tires for the W205.

The previous 2018 came with all seasons that worked well in snow (and I replaced the OEM tires with the same). Never had snows with it - not needed.

But the dealer can't even tell me that brand/type of tire that is coming on the new car (she claims it changes all the time)- but she told me I needed winter tires for sure for the 2025........ I upgraded to the 19" rims on the build....

no I mean, if you get winter tires, the W205 ones might work, so that means there will be more options (need to confirm first) than say if only look at W206.
