Advise for all season and winter tires pls...

Hi to all,

I own a 2010 E70, with 18" OEM wheels and RTF Conti Contact 255/55/18 for 30000 kms since new. I must admit I am happy with miy Conti, but they need replacement asap.





Since I will get a new set of tires, I am going the usual route as many folks here. I am geting a new set of wheels and a second set of winter tires. So I found in my local wheels store a set of 20" wheels 214 style on which I would like to install a set of all season tires, and keep my 18" OEM wheels for a set of winter tires.

Just a side note, I say all season because I tow a 30 ft RIB in the summer days and also my summer holidays are in a sandy Greek island with many sandy traps.

I searched the net and I found too many options, I also talked with my local dealer and gave me as options Bridgestones and Conti 4x4 for all seasons and Conti winter and general altiMax for winter tires. To be honest I am really confused, so I took the courage to ask you guys what do you advise me to get for

1. All season tires for 20" Wheels 214 style and
2. Wint tires for 18" OEM wheels

Thanks in advance,
