you would need to go 225/60/17 to be safe, but thats WAY TOO tall for a neon.

If you're looking for having strictly snow tires don't get wide tires... get narrow, like 185 series. A narrow tire is better in snow as it cuts through a lot easier instead.

the falkens are really good all around tires. They are amazing in heavy rain conditions. As for the snow they are ok if u know how to drive in the snow. Personally id rather something narrower and more designed for the snow instead of a high performance all season tire.
