I'm just getting an M3 for the first time in a couple weeks, so I've never driven one the in snow. I've got an A4 Quattro now which has been great the past five winters. I expect the change to rear-wheel drive with snow tires will be a different experience, but from what I've read lots of people do it without issues.

I'm still trying to figure out which snow tire and wheel combination will work best for MN winters, which see some snow, but more often dry and very cold conditions - and wet slush later in the season. Too many choices...!
