Winter Setup

This local forum is so dead.

Just a quick question? I live in the Chicagoland area. What winter setup (tires+wheels) do you guys run?

I need to buy a set in 1-2 months and I'm thinking about Blizzak WS 80s, LM 32s, or Nokian Hakkapellitas.
I'm just not sure if I need a set of regular winter tires or winter performance tires.
On my previous ride (MK6 GTI) I was running Nokian WRG3 all weather plus tires during the winter and they were great but my 235i is a rear wheel drive so I think I would need tires with more grip. Thanks in advance.

Hey I'm down in Indy. I used Dunlop Wintersport 4D's last winter and had a great experience. I'm selling this set (225/40-18) if you're interested in saving a few bucks over buying brand new. They only have the 1 last winter on them, two have 10/32 and two have 7.5/32.

Let me know if you're interested!

Thanks for your offer. I'll stick with 17" wheels and 215/50/r17 tires for sure, though.

I have BBS SRs 17" with Blizzak WS80s and like them very much. I bought from Tire Rack and had them ship to my gas station. These have been great on the recent snow here in Mpls, MN.
