I have a 530i sport with summer tires and I need a good all weather tire. This is my first experience with a BMW in the snow so I'm looking for a bit of advice from seasoned owners.

Thanks!

I looked that tire up on the Michelin site and they call it an all season tire.

Not sure where you looked, but its listed as "Ultra-High Performance Winter Tire. V-rated MICHELIN® Pilot® Alpin® PA3 tires help deliver an excellent solution for power and precision in winter driving." They also have the snowflake "industry severe snow service approved" stamp on them. They are true snow/winter tires in every way, I am just calling them what they are.

I agree that that link does not say they are all season, but the link I had did state all season.

If I can find it again I'll post it.
