I live in Incline Village, Nevada where we get lots of snow. I just picked up my new Taycan 4S and was disappointed to find it was shod with summer tires. Any recommendations for good winter tires?

Also, I'm inclined to get some nice wheels, put the summer tires on the nice wheels and put the winter tires on the 19 inch wheels that came with the car. Any recommendations for after-market wheels?

This thread discusses many options.

I run the 20" Pirelli P Zero Winter Elect (NF0) winter tires in Utah and Colorado.
They are great in the cold and snow.

Thanks for the recommendation. On Tire Rack at least none of these options seem to be available in the 225/55R19 and 275/45R19 sizes needed for the 19 inch wheels.

They are sold out everywhere, I can't find a set for 20 inch wheels as well. Sad that my Taycan has to sit in the garage.

Yeah, getting a set of winter tires with wheels you like is going to be pretty much mission impossible by now. Bill Pearce aka Porsche Reno has a set of 19" with snow tires and there might be other options from the Porsche tire sets though given that everyone is looking I wouldn't be too optimistic.
