I'm looking for a winter bib that is padded but cut a little roomier. Any good websites? Thanks!

Roomier where?
What brand bib shorts do you wear?

I just got a pair of Pearl-Izumi AmFib tights. Bib versions are not made for the US market but can be found at Pearl outlet stores. Their outlet stores are listed on their website at www.pearlizumi.com. These outlet stores will gladly ship mail order. I've so far ridden into the twenties with these things and been real warm.

oops, sorry, these are not padded. I wear a pair of cycling shorts underneath them.

Personally, I prefer wearing non-padded tights in cold/wet weather, with padded bibshorts underneath. The latter usually fit better and provide a nice extra layer...

Was just in the LBS, and picked up the Pearl AmFib tights, did not have the bibs, but Sugio makes a bib that was for sale. Thought better of it, as there have been some races to the bathroom that I've almost lost. I don't think struggling with a pair of bibs is going to help any.

This stuff is the bomb! I have the non bib version and I use them from 10-50 degree weather. I highly recommend them. I haven't had any problems with them. Pearl Izumi is the stuff.

I wear my normal Performance Elite bibs under a pair of tights and find this comfortable into the teen's on my MTB. For road riding, I just bought a pair of Performance's Triflex tights. Have worn them once in 40 degree weather and they are too much for that. I'll try again when it drops into the 30s. Can't imagaine getting cold with them on. Like others on this thread, I don't wear tights with a chamois. Just my regular bibs underneath and layers of wicking jerseys above under my riding jacket.
