Yep. Michelin 235/40 18 PA3. Use as spare also. Can recommend as adequate looks, great price. Don't do snow myself, but good for low temps.

That's what I am thinking. More for cold weather then snow driving. Do you have the black finish A7s on your VO?

Didn't even know that was an option, but wouldn't have gone for it anyway--titanium would have been nice. I actually got this set for my previous ride--E92 M3, but fit 1M perfectly as you know.

Yessiree, a perfect fit. Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 or studded Hakkapeliitta 7 if you can, in 235-40-R18.

Those tires will make the 1M a snow master!

What tires are considered to be the best all around winter option right now for the 1M?

Had them on my car with Dunlop 3D's. Great setup IMO.

I run the same setup, 235 front and 255 rear Blizzaks on them.
