Getting going is zero problem, but cornering and stopping performance is not great - I expect that is where I will see the most benefit from the winter tires.
I drove the F31, and it only comes in X Drive. It has very light steering. I was going to buy that car, but didn't largely because of the electric steering, and the lack of diesel six cylinder.

I decided to go with the 535dx because it was more like the classic BMW with hydraulic steering. I wish there was an F11 in the states.
