Any snow tire brand will do, what kind of recommendations are you looking for?

I bought four Volution Racing VRD-10R 17" wheels and four Pirelli SnowSport 225/50HR17 snow tires, all off of ebay for like 650 shipped, had a local tire place mount them and install onto the car. The wheels clear the front brakes just fine and the tires have pretty good grip for winter tires IMHO.

I definitely recommend buying a cheap set of 17" rims that you know fit over the SE-R brakes (same as the maxima brakes) as 17" winter tires are much less expensive compared to 18" tires.
