I can confirm that TPMS exists on canadian cars. I know because it yelled @ me once saying all my tires were low. turns out they were actually fine, but the system will show all 4 as low even if only one is ~32psi instead of the 34-35. IDK what happened with my summer set though, I got them from the states but I didn't ask if they came with TPMS & I had them installed @ a shop, so idk if they hooked it up or w/e. They were dirt cheap, so I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't have it (but isn't it legally mandated there?) Either way haven't had any problems since, but it does exist here.

Thanks fellas. So I shouldn't expect any warning lights for tire pressure after changing to a winter set? Alright, today or tomorrow placing my order for the AG M359 in matte black and going with the Blizzak LM32. Won't be mounting them right away though haha

I want to clarify something here...
TPMS is located in the suspension of Canadian spec cars and therefore does not need to be purchased. The USA spec cars have TPMS located in rims. Now I've heard things may be changing for the new F30's. My above comments are with respect to E9X cars. |

The good news for us is we can swap wheels easily without having to either swap the sensors or reprogram the car to recognize the new sensors. When I bought an extra set of OEM Wheels from the dealer for my wife's car, they had the TPMS valve stems included for some reason, but they are useless on her X5 it does not use the TPMS Sensors in the wheels. |

Canadian cars have the FTM not the TPMS.

Quick question: Can you run 265 blizzak tires in the rear on a 11inch wide wheel for M3 or will it be too stretched.

^ Fack! The 219s look so right on the M3. Wish I could have found a set for my winter setup...anyways, that looks really good man! No center caps though?

Lol. Do not get butt hurt, I sent you my number and told you to text me before I sold them and you kept sending me q's on m3post and didn't call until 2/3 days after the fact. If you had called and I answered your q's in 10 minutes then you could have taken them. Good luck on your search.

How many of you regularly drive your cars in the winter; day in & day out?
Going with a 265/35/18 blizzak setup all around when the car gets here. Don't know what to expect with a v8 and rear wheel drive but hoping for the best.

i ran Breyton GTS Race in the winter on 19" blizzak LM-25V's last year. I sold that though and will be going on the OEM 220's with mix-matched blizzak LM25v in the front and LM60 in the rear...
I'll have an extra staggered set in 225/40/19 and 255/40/19 for anyone interested... near new but not brand new.

Looks like it's a bit of overkill to put on blizzaks this week. Should I wait?
