The specific tire inflation ranges are almost always stamped into the sidewall of any tire.
As far as winter tires go, I don't use them anymore. Tried them for a few years and the difference was basically negligible on city roads. If you have a good pair of all season tires to begin with you're going to be fine so long as you're not driving like its summer out during a blizzard....which is why most of the accidents I've witnessed in the winter have occurred.
