I went to Iceland for 10 days in March-April 2009. You can see my photos from the trip.
Winter sights will be present, but probably only in certain areas. One day we drove through a blizzard, Gullfoss was very cold and windy, but other days were dry and clear. In Akureyri, skiing was available.
Since I have a sample size of one trip, it’s hard to suggest what dates might be best for you.
Our hired car was a 4WD Škoda wagon with studded tyres. It did very well for the conditions at that time of year. The main ring road is kept clear as much as possible because it’s the only land route from one place to another. Many side roads were closed so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on the Iceland road conditions – check that site every day before you set out.
