Just seems like a hassle. I know people do it, but it just isn't that appealing. If the xi is not good in the snow/ice with the allseasons, that is one reason to just ditch the xi and get the 330i and do the wheel/tire swap, but I'd like to know whether people have had good results with the past xi versions with allseason rubber.

I don't know if this helps, but I live in Chicago and the X-type with all-seasons is amazing. I can out-accelerate SUV's and cars easily (still safely and w/i reason).
