Winter mode 2018/19 - GTS sized PA4
Thought I'd share my somewhat unique winter setup. I drive in a crap ton of cold rain in temps 35-50F as well as frozen surfaces and rare snow. I also just moved to a neighborhood up a huge hill. My M is my daily but I can steal the wife's SQ5 if there is significant snow.
This is my third car/setup using Michelin PA4 and I think it's such a dope winter tire. In the past I've done 18s with 245s square on an E90M, stock sizes on M235xi, and this time on my M3 I wanted to go wide aggressive with close to stock offsets. I don't subscribe to narrower is better in winter. I'm not rally driving in Finland.
Wheels:
Decided not to spend an arm and a leg on winter wheels so went with the classic CSL look in gunmetal.
VMR V703 (VB3) 19x9.5 et33 and 19x10 et25
Tires:
Michelin Pilot Alpin 4 (PA4) in E92 M3 GTS sizing 255/35/19 and 285/30/19
Enjoy!
