Awesome, thanks! I only have a 3rd vehicle for a couple more weeks, and then I have to figure something out.

Oh, and we are getting 17 inches of snow tonight.

I have for sale a set of 4 Dunlop Winter Sport M3 245/40/18 (tires only) off an 07 550 that I used for one season. They're in great shape. I had these listed about a month ago on this site with a few bites but no takers. $600+shipping.

I ran them on a RWD 550 and it was very stable. On an xi you could probably climb Everest!

I finally found a set. Thank you everyone who contacted me.

I found a set on Ebay that are 17" OEM #138 wheels with Contiweather sport snows. Used one season. Retail new $1900. I got the entire set for $510.

I'm ecstatic about the deal, and I can't wait to get them on my car.
