Surprisingly agree with you, I have MPSS 285/35/21 and 325/30/21 and it was surprisingly good this past weekend with the snow we got in Northern Virginia. I had the same tires on my previous 335i RWD and it did not do anywhere near as well as this. Tires gave out on ice last year and ended up popping a curb and ruining the car. Almost 26K in damages just from the suspension, tires and wheels.

So last night was a good time to find out I am riding on 20" sport summer tires.

I don't know man. The 20" Bridgestone summers I have are very unsafe in the few inches of snow we've gotten here. With a less than experienced driver they would be a disaster. I pretty much had to go down a hill sideways the other day to slow it down and prevent it from skiing down the hill into oncoming traffic. Pretty hairy to say the least.

Dude, no way that is safe - I'd get some snows quickly if I were you. Those tires are not designed to travel in snow or ice. Check this video: https://www.tirerack.com/videos/inde...=26&tab=Winter

Just collected today new X5 40e

This was hoped to be ready Monday but I had to pace around the house for a few extra days due a slightly longer wait for the transporter. Having already had a good drive around, I think tomorrow will be spent “plugged in” getting to grips with the idrive.
