Well of course, it has 33% more Sotto in every tire.

Have you considered the ContiWinterContacts now that they are available in our sizes?

I found Pirelli Sottozero 2 in 265/35/20 & 295/30/20. Will it better than Sottozero 3 in 255/285?
What do you think guys?
Can not find Sottozero 3 in 265/295

Your screen cap was not of those sizes....just assumed you were wanting a narrower tire which is not uncommon for winter setup. I use a 19" wheel for my winter perf tires - not the 20s so can't advise you beyond what you have already found on tire rack.

Go for 19" SZ3.
A new compound and a new profile for better performance!

I'll be trying out the SZ3's on the stock 20" 343's this year after running LM60 Blizzak's on an E90 M3 for the past four seasons. Here's to hoping they are as good if not better.
