I have my 20's on and am wondering when should I change them out and put on my Stock 17's with winter tires.

As long as you have your winter set-up ready to go I wouldn't worry too much. My plan is to ride it out as long as I can with my summer tires given the forecast stays clear. However at the first hint that we are getting actual snowfall I'll make the switch.

Hmm.. MY winter setup isn't... setup. haha. I need new winter tires.
What do you guys think of the Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D tires? I think i'm going to get those for my 17's. (OEM 138's).

I had the sp winter sports on my e46 and I loved them never got stuck once last year with them and they are great at high speeds. Currently bought pirellis 210's for the e60 hopefully they work out jsut as good.
