In addition to this a narrow tire is better especially in heavier snow. There is less tire width to plow throw the snow.those are great wheels.
you're going the wrong way for snow tires. you want to go narrower, not wider since wider means less psi given the contact patch is bigger than a narrower tire. same weight pushing down on larger contact patch equals less psi vs same weight pushing down on smaller contact patch. result - you'll lose quite a bit of traction on snow and ice not to mention increased braking distance on slippery roads in winter.
it should be 235/45/18 or 245/40/18 max...not 265.
