Cool. Am leaning toward holding on the snow tires until next season since:
1) I won't be back and driving the car until late Jan most likely
2.) I have an X5 for rough weather/snow/sleet and as a backup daily driver if needed
3.) I am almost ready to pull the trigger on either the MORR VS8 19" Group buy OR the VMR710 gunmetal upgrade to me OEM 18"'s! LOL (am trying to be disciplined but it's hard!)
