I'm having trouble choosing between the dedicated Blizzak REVO 1 winter tire vs. the Blizzak LM-25 (Performance Winter) for my new 335i with sport package. I will be using the BWM rims that came on the car. How much of a difference in performance will I get between the two. Is it unsafe for me to use the REVO 1 winter tire in dry roads when there is no snow? Also, can I get both of these tires as runflats? If not, what does everyone suggest?

Also, with the 335i what size tires do I need? I have the sport package and I think it's 8"x18" for the fronts and 8.5"x18" for the rear.

Thanks! :thumbup:

Neither the REVO1 nor LM25 tires are runflats. There are no runflat snows available in 18" this season. You'll need to minus size to 17" with either 225/45R17 all around or 205/50R17 all around to get a runflat snow tire.
