So far is your X5 SUVs capable of traversing snowy streets?

I am running 18" DM-V1 and it handles well and very comfortable compared to my stock Goodyear LS2's

They grip very well on icy conditions and no drama on the highway or any noise

Thanks for the response. Sounds like I will get a set of these in the same size next winter.

Another day with another snow here...

I found that the snowplow trucks are one of the biggest enemies, too. Their snowmelt/salt/sand are usually spread out from its rear rotary, like the bullets from the machine guns. I can clearly feel and hear the bullet sound and vibration insides the car.

I bet I'll see the new chips and dings after detailing the car afterwards. Just like this thread below.

Meanwhile the salt/melt they're using is industrial-only stuff. It has also left a few of stains on my internal door panels. Water with salt/melt dropped from the top of the door frame. This also sucks.

Just got mine back yesterday. We had some crazy snow today. It handles very well in the snow even for 22s...Delinte D8s for the WIN!

I have the 19" 449 winter set up and it handles the ice and snow in Colorado like a dream. Very pleased with the traction, stability and braking.

7" of new snow and my X5 with 19" Pirelli all season went through it like it wasn't there
