mfm3 is infamous around these parts
Great feedback and from everyone. That's what I was looking for. Here's my garage with 75000 BTUs (see top left corner) and drains under the Titan and Challenger. There is now a C2S Cab where the Titan was and a RRS where the 535xi was.

They are 19's and Pirelli sotto zero's I don't have a tire thread gauge but I can send u some pics. Good amount of tread left. That's for sure. The tires need to be mounted and balanced though the lobsters have seen better days but hey they are for winter rims. The rears are stained from using the wrong cleaner (not me) and one has a tiny bit of rash. One front rim has a slight bend on the lip bit the car rides perfect. I have a perfect set of lobsters replacing these wheels. Let me knownif your interested.

This is a concern for me as well. This will be my first winter with a RWD car. Since 2004 I have had Subarus which have the best AWD setup out there. Before that I drove a RAV4 and various FWD cars.

Can someone tell me what tires I should be looking at? I had Blizzaks before but they are not made in sizes I would need for the C2S.

Here is another thread with winter tire references...

The TireRack has a useful wizard, too. You can have packages mounted and shipped to your home, shop, wherever...

If anyone is interested in these let me know. I don't have 100 posts yet so i can't list them for sale on 6speed. I am willing to let the set go at a reasonable price. I have my perfect lobsters I need to put on and don't intend to drive the car in the snow that would require winter tires that came with the car.

Thanks!
