What size 16" tires will keep the speedo accurate?
Try using this...

First put in the your summer tire size, record the diameter... then keep putting in potential winter tire sizes until you find the closest match...
I did a quick calculation... the stock SS/SC tires (215/45R18) are 25.6" diameter...
The 205/60R16 are 25.7"
The 215/55R16 are 25.3"
So, go with what css9450 said; the 205/60R16.

Here is a really good conversion tool that shows how far off your speedometer will be with different tire sizes.
