I am assuming you have the contisport contacts. I had those on my 330ci and used them as my winter tires for 3 winters. They were fine in the wet and the snow. I plan on doing the same this year with my 335i coupe.

You'll get around, but I'd wouldn't say any all-season tire is "good" in the snow.

That appears to be a huge gap between the front fender and tire. Is it the angle or is the gap really that large?
