AstonMartian777 · 12-01-2014, 11:29 AM

Hey guys what are the absolute best winter tires for the m6 I can get ? I'm planning on mounting on stock rims because my tires don't hook at ALL

OP asked for THE ABSOLUTE BEST - michi's are nice but no pure winter rubber approaches the level of grip in snow and ice that studded tires offer.

Hey thanks guys, I just want to be able and grip during the winter, I don't need studded tires, but that would grip well in the winter, thanks for your input guys !

I got the BMW 408M wheels with Pirellis on them a month ago. Not sure how they will perform on ice and snow as we haven't had any yet.

I have the OEM 409M 20 inch rims with Dunlop SP Wintersport 3D 255/35 20 97V. Used them last year with no problem, but it was a winter without much snow so I can't really comment on how well they perform. I had Goodyear Ultragrip on my E39 M5 and they never let me down is some pretty severe conditions (for the UK).
