In Reply to: 540i traction on snow- how is it? posted by Jack on April 30, 2000 at 15:04:14:

Hi Jack,

It's great IF you have snow tires. The higher performance tires on the 540i/6 aren't very sticky on the snow. Traction control can only make use of available traction, it cannot manufacture traction. With a good set of snow tires, you can drive circles around everyone--even SUVs. I'm selling mine if you're interested. E-mail me directly if interested.

Jeffrey
