The W300's are complete, unadulterated crap. I ran an e46 M3 with Dunlop Wintersport M3's that had better traction than the w300's on an xDrive 328. Forget them. Junk.

Honestly, I am going to use 214's running Pirelli snow and ice in the stock 20" size. I know that many many people will say that you are better on a less wide tire, and I see the virtue in it.

Have Weather Techs in my 09 M3 and 10 GL350 (which is, WooHoo, being replaced by an X5 35d), and I would recommend nothing else. The form fit and ascending borders are excellent.

I have to agree with most of the people who are pro-X7. I had an e70 X5, and it was good, but limited in some respects. We are now considering a GL 350, and really don't want to jump over to MB. ...
