Look forward to the pics. At this point, I'm going to just chance the rest of winter. I have my BMW with snows until 2/8 and I travel a lot for work. Can work from home if I need to. I think I want the F10s and I hate to spend extra money on nice rims for snow tires. I was going to buy the SSR 19s on closeout for 149 until I realized they were 9.5 inches wide and the only 19 inch Blizzak is a 225 width. Anyway, just babbling...

My 18" Blizzaks are virtually the identical profile as my 20" KD Dub Yahs-
Speedometer error of about .2 mph tracking 10 satellites.
They fill up the wheel well on my FX just as the 20's do.

I have not had much snow to speak of but we had some pretty serious ice last night and these tires perform great. I stopped on one of the worst hills I could find that was covered in ice and it just spun a bit, then right up! I am more confident in the cold weather handling with this car, than my AWD Audi with all seasons!

I have 19'' Blizzaks on mine right now and they aren't as good as I expected. On my 04/06 G35s I had 17'' Dunlop M3 and those things were claws. I actually got stuck on the freeway last week in about 2'' of snow cuz I was sliding off the road at 5mph. I was stuck on shoulder for 30 min trying to get moving, but kept sliding off the road due to the incline. Not what I had hoped for when dishing out $1300 on snow wheel/tire setup.
