Waiting until after the first snowfall is a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for him.

Hahaha I did that, and it doesn't pay off.

First snow fall wasn't to bad, second snowfall oh my, I thought it would be fun to slide a round a bit quite the mistake.

Was driving like 25 km/h uphills. And braking was terrible. Thankfully my commute to parking is only ~ 5 minutes.

Tried to do a slide turning into the empty bus parking, I 180ed around and was almost stuck.

Probably doesn't help that I had finished tires in the rear of my all seasons tho.

No problem, my X5 is for sale. Make me an offer. 2011 35D 125k over 4k in maintenance done this calendar year alone. Brand new Michelin tires. It's a BEAST in the snow. Upgraded angel eyes, fogs, headlight bulbs, license plate etc. Very clean black on white leather. Make me a fair offer.

Nah, 17" still fit. Fronts might require spacers depending on offsets.

For what it’s worth, the 17” style 339 wheels fit my 08 E90 335i with Sport Package. Not sure if the M Sport Package is any different.

I've got a set of 193M's with Nokian WR-G3 Tires. The rears need replacing, but the fronts are in good shape. Pre-LCI TPMS installed. Wheels are straight and true. Some minor curbage and carbon buildup. But they're good OEM winter wheels.

Should be available by next week, once I get my new winter setup installed.

Located in Central CT
PM me if interested.
