My Ride: "Angel I's" 2005 525i Debadged, Remote Homelink, Full Burl Package, Cold Weather PKG, Premium Sound PKG, BMW Wheel Stems, Biege Rubba Matz, EURO Tag, Dual Zone Vents, Automatic Car Ventilation, Rescue Kit. Due up: Aux Input, TINT, and K&N Filter and some Zaino LOVE for my Angel.
Not to knock the iX, because If I had the loot to get one - I would have............BUT I had a pretty cool time slushing around in the snow. I know I should have some snow tires though, so what tires do you recommend? Thanks.

I have the Michelin Pilot Alpins and I've been very pleased with them, but this is my first time every driving a RWD car in snow, so I really have nothing to compare it too.
Winter is damn near over so I'd save the money for the time being.

I agree with the post above in regards to waiting.
I have the Continental WinterContiSport. They have been great! They have gotten through snow coverd roads without issue. Again 95% of our driving has been wet or dry roads one a few hours on the snow covered roads.
tirerack.com is where I bought them

Blizzak LM-25's are the best for winter. Car handles better than my SUV now.

Wow, Nice Handling and your SUV is All-Wheel Drive?
There are two types of Blizzak LM-25, Blizzak LM-25 4x4 with UNI-T and Blizzak LM-25 with UNI-T.
Which one is yours? Does it mean that 525i can't use LM-25 4x4 with UNI-T?
What makes LM-25 different than other Bilzzaks like LM-22 or DM-Z3?
Sorry, I ask a lot of questions.
because I'm not an expert in Tyres.Thanx.
