Nice! Do you like mine in Swedish ice?
How come it's only your number plate that's fully invisible ??
It's a nice way (wintertime) of not paying the toll on the roads in Stockholm

How are you guys getting around in the snow without slipping especially with the sports package and rear wheel drives? I have a 530 with sports package with 18" summer tires and if I come upon even a slight patch of ice, I slip and dtc kicks in. I guess you guys have changed the tires to winter ones, but it's still 18" rims....do the winter tires(if thats what you have) work well in snow?
thanks
thanks

Hi
I have Nokian HAKKAPELIITTA 4 245/40R18 97 T XL. It's at stud tyre. I'm very satisfied with it. It gives a lot of grip even when it's a lot of ice on the roads. Check this website out if you need more info: http://www.nokiantyres.com/passengercars_p...AKKAPELIITTA+4#
Cheers

Winter? What winter?
With Nokian Hakkapeliitta 4 snow tires (225/50R17) and x-drive I hardly notice the white stuff on the ground. Got the car yesterday, so I might not be very often at the forum in the next few days because I have better things to do. Having fun...

I agree with the what winter statement but with only RWD!
At the size 225/55 16" the ContiVikingContact3 is the best non-stud winter tire.
Sorry to say but the Continental tires are all the way better than Nokians!
