Would you mind sharing who you got them from? I'm based in the US and interested in this set-up too.

Sure- Robert at wheel supreme. Tell him I sent you.

The customer service has been great so far- they are Canada based (wheel wiz), but also ship to the US.

Just tried, the only wheel they have is MSW Type 30, but won't be available until Jan 2022...

I might just go with the dealership to get 829M with F19x9 / R19x9.5, they ask for $5.1k + tax + installation

Did wheelsupreme have the bronze available online in 19"? I only see 18" for the RF05RR.

I had to specifically ask for the 19" bronze on the phone, and they were able to contact the manufacturer directly (Superspeed) to verify they have it.

They sent a special order quote to my email.

Anybody considering 255/40/19? … I'm being told a narrower tire is better for the winter. Any thoughts?

Had the Winters put on today.

All good…synced right up to the monitoring system, no issues with fit.

Just need to pay attention to the staggered set up with the 9.5 width in the back

Nice! That'll do nicely. ~1 month more on my current car with Sottozeros, then switching over to the new on Pilot Alpin 5.

I went with the OEM M5 winter setup (liked the wheels better than the M3 OEM package). Swapped the tires for the correct size...and stayed square so no issue with rotating

Anybody just using the stock rims and buying winter tires for the 19's and 20's or is that a bad idea?

Some people are doing that but there are limited options available I think. I think someone got Sortozero in that size but you'll need to look
Around and see what is available

Smaller, narrower tires are better in snow but assuming your climate isn't horrible you should be fine

I'm going to Canada on a road trip and the lowest temp on my dates is 46 so far. Trying to decide do I swap the winters on for that trip or leave the summers on. Seems to be right on the margin. Below 45 is the ideal temp for winters I believe.

it's a provincial law so it depends on where you're going

If you're going to Quebec then yes you'll need winter tires

Just for context on the below, I'm in New Hampshire; our winters are no joke:

Short answer: I am using my stock 825M wheels w/Pirelli Sottozero 3's

Long answer: I wanted to maintain stock sizes for appearance. I'm going to buy some 826M bi-color wheels for the summer tires that are coming off my 825 wheels.

I couldn't find anything other than sottozero 3's on sites like tire rack, and by the time I made my decision, they were out of the rear size and told me it would be likely end of December/January before they got more.

By this point, I already knew my dealer had some, so I called and asked what else they had. I don't remember all the options, but the Michelin Alpin PA4 was one. I don't remember the options because I had researched a bit online and talked to tire shops in my area and they said the sottozeros are good winter tires, period.

Bottomline, my dealership basically price matched tire rack for the sottozero's, let alone had them in stock, and had other stock wheel size options for winters where nowhere else I looked did…and I personally never buy tires from the dealership due to mark up, but it was well worth it this time around.

I had a 2013 335xi which you can see in my garage in this forum still, and the less than 5 times I needed xdrive, I could have not been driving or used my wife's SUV.

I work from home, and have the luxury of an SUV when I need to go out in bad weather, so I'm in a position at 39 years old to drive my M3C this winter only when I know I'm good to (e.g after plowing).

Hope this helps you and others think through their position in making a decision what's best for you.

FWIW: the sottozero 3's go on my M3C on The 15th…always try to wait as close to those constant, below 40 temps, as I can before switching to winters. I'll post pics after they go on…my M3C is lowered on MSS springs and 15mm spacers all around; anxious to see what adjustments I'll need to make, if any.

I ordered a set of Michelin Pilot Alpin 4s in the staggered setup for the stock 19/20" wheels. Problem is these are discountinued and I don't know if Michelin makes the rear 285/30/20 for their newer Pilot Alpin 5 yet.
