I guess I was lucky to get to drive my new car for 3 weeks before sliding off road on black ice..
OVER $30,000 damage! Now it'll be 4 MONTHS until I can see her again... Several parts back ordered from Germany and are 4-6 weeks out! They certainly don't mention that on the test drive...: |

I was driving very cautiously, I have a non comp. so 470hp. In the m4wd (traction mode)! Figured I had to get down to get the tires or I'd be stranded for the season without snow tires! Never a traction problem ever with previous 6 BMW's, 3 of which were not x drive. |

Sorry not trying to rub salt in an open wound (I feel for you) but based on my experience with car dealerships, I think your expectation of the woman confirming your appointment to be a knowledgeable source of tire safety was misguided. |

I feel your pain, just waited 29 days for an 02 sensor on a car with 80 miles on it....They are assembled 900 miles from my house.
I could have ordered and had 3 cars delivered in that time. |

"Winter Tires General Information Winter tires are recommended for operating on winter roads. Although so-called all-season M+S tires provide better winter traction than summer tires, they usually do not provide the same level of performance as winter tires."

2. I don't know what maint. has to do with this. 3. Winter tires aren't required in Florida in October.... you live in Colorado and easily has snowfall in October, despite when winter really starts...
