Winter Set-up

What tires did you put on for the winter set-up. I'm about to trade my M3 for a M6 SG GC. I had bizzaks on my M3 which i really liked.

If you ask me, I bought Pirelli Sottozero non-runflat tires on stock rims, 20" 265 front and 295 rear. Drives really well in snow!

They are very addicting... the key is to find balance and make sure they all playoff each other well..thats when all the mods look like one piece... as if they came with the car.
Couldnt have said it better!! The car is BADass, and it looks super clean and NOT modded! Thats the taste Hunter has and is very impressive! I was very impressed with your last car as this one! Congrats brother!!

Can wait to see the CF mirror covers.

Quick question are your stock 343 rims satin or gloss black and do you have any more pics?
Torn on which way to go with SG color. Thanks hunter!

Initially I had satin black and that was cool but then I went and did them gloss and I like that better...if you take a look at my sideskirt shot below I'm in winter mode and they are gloss there. I should have some other pics throughout my thread too. I'll try and snap some pics but the weather is mleh. I would go gloss black because the black trim is also gloss and it goes really well... It all depends on the satin black finish because not everyone does it the same. For instance I did not get gloss black for my P101's and they look phenomenal however the stock 343's did not look as good in satin black as they do in gloss and I would never have gotten the p101's in gloss because that would have ruined such a beautiful wheel... hope that helps. Bmw still hasn't released the parts for the CF mirrors yet but they should shortly. I'll be one of the first to receive them and will snap pics for sure.
