What is your goal? Save money? Better snow traction?
In general, the size the manufacturer uses is the best suited for a
particular vehicle.

To save some money, the present tires need to be
replaced, but I aim on trading the car some time soon.

Then go to a salvage yard and pick up 4 decent tires for $25 apiece. Get
them mounted and balanced by a local garage and trade the car in. No point
in putting any more money into a trade than you have to.

A quick search at tires.com shows P195/60/H15 tires starting at $52. A
couple of years ago I got a set of four Sumitomo HTR H4 tires from Sears for
around $60 each (installed). Hope that helps.

You should be able to get a set of 4 decent tires for about $200, that's
a common size.

Indeed, right now Sears Auto is having a "Buy 3, Get 1 Free" deal on the
Sumitomo HTR H4. They also have an excellent price on a very good, but very
competitively priced tire, the Falken Ziex ZE-912.
