These newer tires are 245/45/18 which is a correct size for the F10. I have not yet tried them in much snow, but expect to soon when I go skiing in the near future. They should be nearly as good as the Hakkapeliittas but are more performance oriented.

I'm nervous about running tires as wide as 245, from what I've read. Really surprised to hear you had such luck with them in the Canadian snow-belt. Did you face much bad snow when you had them?
Would this option look like what you had?
