Ya I hear ya Nahoa... I suppose I'm just pissed because I bought the bmw winter wheel package with mediocre Pirelli's and not a decent set of winter rubber as I originally intended. The Pirelli's have very conservative tread block design especially at the outside edge of the tire... Good on dry... Bad in snow
