My 135i had no problems at all in the snow.
You are right... I saw giant-ass car and chrome wheels and I just immediately thought escalade. And no offense to the escalade owner, I'd roll one if I could.

Side note on traction: I drove my wife to work this morning... the LM60s are SO good in the snow/slush, I can't even believe it. I found myself driving into unplowed areas at stoplights just to see if it would get stuck. The tire would rotate maybe 1/2 a revolution and it would hook up immediately and I would crawl out.

The difference between these tires and all-seasons is literally like going from 2wd to 4wd, its that huge.
