Winter with M3
Happy Thanksgivings everyone.
After going back and forth between M3 and Macan Turbo (which is no sports car but still impressive for what it is), I've finally settled on M3.I have one coming in mid December (19inch with standard brakes). As this will be my DD I have some concerns about winter/snow in NJ/NY. This will be my second winter in northern NJ and my Audi S4 with All Seasons did fine last winter. This time I'll be putting on winters on the M3 which is a different animal from S4. My question is which winter tires are suitable in NJ winter. I do quite a bit of driving daily with mixture of freeway (though it's not free in NJ) and in town driving. If anyone have experiences with Pirelli Sotto Zero/Michelin Alpine 4/Blizzak LM-32 in NJ/NY area, I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks. BK. |

Michelin Alpine 4 or Blizzak LM-32 will be more than enough for your needs.
We just got 2' of snow here in 48 hrs, M3 been handling like a dream on my 18" Continental Winter Contac tires. Fun to do donuts in empty parking lots. Have no issues with stop and go on ice/snow covered roads. |

What size/brand rims are you using? I have an old set of 18" rims from an E46 M3, but the inner diameter is too narrow to clear the calipers on the M4.
