In Reply to: TireRack has plenty of 17" options. (m) posted by Leigh on March 19, 2001 at 08:24:51:

All I can find is 16 inchers -


Talk to Aaron or Jim - the two people at TireRack who answer the TireRack-BMW Forum questions.

I have 17" Dunlop WinterSports M-2 for my 540i/6sp and have found them to be excellent. I have them in OEM staggered size 235/45/17 front, 255/40/17 rear. They provide good snow/ice traction (go, stop, turn), but surprisingly good wet & dry road traction as well. The wet/dry road traction and performance is vastly better than my experience with Blizzak, Gislavad or other snow tires. These are H rated winter performance tires.
