Hello Sank_CH
The summer tyres for these 19" are mixed sized tyres. Is this the same for the winter tyres? Any tipp where to get them in CH? I will receive my X3 30d M Sport within the next few weeks (purchased in UK due to the outrages pricing in CH) and will need to buy winter tyres as well.

Yes Pirelli Sottozero, in these sizes 19" there is only one model available. They are very good. Used to drive this morning at 120 km/h on the snowy highway between la cote and Nyon. Early enough in the morning to avoid traffic, then too much traffic and had to slow down. Grip is excellent, but physics remain the master on winter road, if you enter too quick in a curve, the big weight of the X3 will push you outside, and I think the roads are not done to practice rally driving.
As you are from Geneva, I drove the Marchairuz road Sunday and it was excellent.
