CF Envy Enlarge Cover and 19" OEM M3 Wheels
Yea, finally. Got these two parts in. The Envy Enlarge Cover was installed about 1 week and half ago. And the OEM 19" M3 wheels were in yesterday. The 19" will be used for my winter set up. Since I got the OEM 19", so I will be putting my OEM 18" up for sell soon and its only been used for less than 30miles.
I know its probably too early to think on the winter tires, but I just want to get an idea ahead of which brand would be the best and cheapest way to go. Any ideas guys? Thanks |

Winter Tires - I went with Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60's (performance winters). Of course with the unusually warm winter we had this year I didn't really need them. But, they were pretty good in the wet and even on dry roads for a dedicated winter. I'd highly recommend them.

BTW - I think you can get LM-60's in the 19" size, but with 18's there is more to pick from (and significantly cheaper). Also, remember...that a narrower tire is better in snow than a wide tire. A lot of guys downsize their winter setups because of this. I know it doesn't "look" the best...but it will do a better job of keeping you out of the ditch if the snow starts flying. I used 235/40/18's in front and 255/35/18 in the back.

I have a set of Blizzak LM25 on my M3 and I went up to both Stevens and Snoqualmie with ease.
