If I was going to pick tires for my mom, I'd go Nokia WRG2 or 3 or Michelin Xice3. Both LLR, winter rated tires and with 40 or 50,000 mile warranty so can be used year round.

205 seems wide for a Focus IMO, I'd go down to 195x55 0.3" larger diameter than stock. Narrower tires are cheaper to, $13 less per tire in the Michelins, $6 less for the Nokians. Just noticed that the Mich are directional, I'd go with Nokians.
