Yes, yes that's all happy and sundry, but my little 525i needs snow to be able to power slide like its v8 brethren.

Before last years' winter, I scored some 1 yr old Michelin X-Ice tires on these Style 33's.
I love pressing the DSC button, and driving the car in the snow at non-snowy-road speed. Slippin' and a slidin' around.
I hear ya. Snow seems to be the great equalizer!

Hey Hyperryd - what's your winter wheel setup?
Same as summer. I live in Central California. We don't get really cold weather. That was a trip I took up to a friends house at around 3000 ft above sea level and a freak hail storm. It is December 30th today and it is 65 degrees outside.

Maine's state mineral: NaCl (aka road salt). Though I wouldn't take my other cars to a car wash, our Touring being a daily driver goes through often during the winter. Unfortunately, the wash was closed yesterday due to the frigid temps; -13 F in the morning and never getting over 8 F during the day.
LOL...and I thought Ohio laid claim to that...!! I hate trying to maintain cars up here in this stuff...makes everything a challenge...
...no clue as to why brake lines rust out behind the right front wheel here either.....

This is awesome! Great to see all these wagons proving their mettle in the harshest conditions!!
My 2001 525it daily beater (until I fix it up more, have rear bumper, etcIMG_8219.jpg)
So far this is the only v8 wagon I have seen playing in the snow
You guys actually drive when there is salt on the ground....?
That is why God made Minivans......totally expendable vehicles
