I would stay with the oem size, even for a snow. The reason is that
most of your snow tire driving will NOT be on snow. Assuming your TT
is with Quattro, it will take you just about anywhere in snow without
snow tires. You need snow tires, however, to stop. d;o) If you go to
16 inch tires, especially with narrower tread, you will be giving up a
little in performance.
