For winter tires you'll never notice the difference between a W and a V rated snow tire, unless you plan on overheating them by driving 150+ for long distances. Worrying the compound wont be up to your performance standards because its a lower speed rating is highly unlikely. I run RE-71R on our dedicated track car, they are pretty much the fastest non R compound tire you can run (rules require us use certain tires). They are V rated and mop the floor with W rated tires all day long. So unless you're Randy Pobst trying to squeeze out very last tenth I'm sure you'll be totally fine. I'd order a set before they sell out, $155 is an amazing deal. - and if you hate them after a season sell them and I doubt you'll lose much at all.

[QUOTE=Stav;24052489]You convinced me - I just placed an order for them to be shipped directly to my local dealer for installation Hopefully they will install them even if they don't match the OEM. Will
If not find a good performance shop that works on high end cars, thats what I did as the dealer near me takes too long. |

I must have missed the rebate part. Lol You gone love them. I don't drive much in winter, so I didn't see a need for whole new set and spend 3-4K Can't wait to get a nice set for Spring

Thanks - what were you guys running on summer tires for comparison? I have been doing 32 front / 33 rears which was giving me the best comfort for daily driving in 70+ temps.

Tire rack guy is asking me to confirm I want 285 squares as it isn't recommended. Certain there are no issues with this on a M5C?
At the same time, he says Sotto 2 and Sotto 3 are not compatible. Why so complicated!? grrr...
