I ordered my snows/rims from the tire rack. They have a feature to see how all their tires/rims look on each car! Good luck!

I enjoy the black coated 189 now with no RFT's now considering been riding on 19's for a while. No rough runflat ride with regular tires big difference.

I have the sport package also on my e92 335i. I was going to get blizzaks mounted on the stock 18s but was worried the large wheels are no good in the snow because they are wide. How is this setup? Thanks

This is winter tyres in their winter environment Setup is stock 16s with 205/55/R16 Dunlop Winter Sport m3 runflat. Nice to have the runflats for winter - if something goes wrong you don't have to be stuck on icy road somewhere waiting for help.

The staggered set up worked pretty well for me, had no problems at all.

Man it must suck to have to go through that whole winter tire change over! Here in NC we get some winter weather, but its not bad enough that i'm willing to spring for winter tires. Yea, i slide around a little from time to time during the 2-3 minor snow days we get, but its actually kinda fun!
