Help - Winter Tires

[genghis]

pardon my ignorance, not thoroughly versed in tire lingo. has anyone looked into which tires/rims they will be putting on their e90 (330i) for the winter? if so, what are the most suitable (cheap/expensive) options, keeping in mind toronto gets a lot of snow.

i know this may be a little premature, but if you live in toronto, winter is not that far away. not to mention, i want to start budgeting.

any advice would be much appreciated. thanks in advance.

I live in Barrie, just north of Toronto and am also interested.
I was thinking of getting them in the States from The Tire Rack along with wheels, but don't know how to get the summer wheels home.
