I've got Michellins on my 19" wheels. I don't doubt that winter will be a lot better, the conditions I've encountered were not exactly challenging and to be honest , when I had my previous E39 (again on summer tyres) in bad snow and ice it was quiet difficult to handle.

i've not encountered any icy roads yet in my F10 which would be another matter and in that case I'd leave the car at home.I just don't think its worth trying and I don't need my car for work so i'd rather avoid getting it damaged through a silly mistake (or someone elses)

I just wanted to comment on it s it handled better than I was expecting.
I always try to drive in a manner where the DSC or ABS doesn't kick in, that way you have some reserves so to speak.
It was a really nice place to be, freezing outside and a nice 22c inside with everything just working- which is how it should be.
Althought it didn't take much snow to disable the radar sensor.
