Bring on the snow :-))

Which garage offered you that deal? I got a quote from Stratstone on the silverlink for the same arrangements and was quoted £1600.

Will be interested in hearing how they perform so don't forget an update.

Mine were from Silverlink...you've got to barter :lol:

thanks, let me know how they go if we get any snow.

I didn't get my car from Stratstone as they wouldn't register it first and pass on the VAT they reclaimed, so would explain the cost of the winter tyres

I'll stick with the standard 19s and run-flat rubber... Worked well enough in last years snow and I'll save a fortune!

Factor in Insurance excess and increased premium and see how much you save!

I don't know if the E89 on summer runflats is different to any other BMW as never tried it in a foot of snow but after the bad winter of 2010 in my E87 which was a death trap on wheels I wouldn't want to find out again :|

Tim.

The E87 I had with 18s on was absolutely a death trap on wheels! The Zed was pretty good last winter, but is nicely tucked away now when the snow comes
