Those are not the oem tires for a 328i that u have in the picture.

but the Audi has a more sporty, directional tire.

and the BMW appears to have the OEM all season continental, which our e46 has and it does AMAZING in the snow.

our RS6 with 19inc DPEs w/Mich PS2's out performs a e90 with all seasons in the snow...

Tirerack listed them as OEM, so either its up to spec with the OEM or its one of tires they might ship with.

You dont keep one of those in your trunk? The hats work great at keeping snow out of your eyes, then again so does the narrow opening to the eyes.

Walking is sooooo hispanic, asians with bikes FTW
