The factory size is 245-/60R
Kal tire, a popular franchise here in canada, does not even list a winter or a four season tire in that size
Do not need off road or mud tires
What to do?

I ran winters for the last two seasons. My recommendation is buying a cheap set of 17" wheels, another set of pressure sensors and get 265/70/17s in any winter tire you can. I had great luck with Winterforce 2 UVs.
Note that every season you will have to switch tires onto your wheels if you only have one set or wheels / tpms. If you have two sets you just take them in and have the pressure sensors synced up each year.
