yeah but most people here said that even with AWD you should get snows... I can attest to this since this was the first winter with my 328xi. I got away with the all season runcraps because they were new. I think I'll be investing in a set of blizzaks for winter '10!!! Just be careful about overconfidence in snowy conditions. I grew up in the boston area and lack of friction and momentum of a 3800 lb car are beyond the capabilities of 99% of drivers...
I had posted that before some more of the response...which I do appreciate. Did a little more research and found this video which really shows the difference...and they used all 328i's, so now I'm leaning back towards getting the winter tires.
