    2023 X3 M Comp ed. Should I put rain / winter tires ?

    Just got new 23 X3 M Comp ed. Came with the summer ultra high performance Continentals. Sport Contact 6. Worried about the Tennessee winter mix of lots of rain and light light snow. Should I swap till May to Michelin a s 4 s ???

    With that kind of power I’d definitely buy a set of 4 Michelin WINTER tires on their own alloys. To me, all season tires are a bad compromise.

    Go to www.tirerack.com to see what’s available. And don’t cheap out on the alloys.

    More concerned with wet as not much snow and we have a Subaru Forrester if needed?
