I have the continentals on mine, I'll be going to Michelin PS4S. Have them on my M2 and they've been great for daily in all the weather Washington state has to offer.

"All seasons because they suck in all seasons", Summer/winter sets for real results, all seasons work well enough but will not be great in actual snow or rainy summers if you are driving "spiritedly".

That's usually the case, but Pilot Sport 4 All Seasons will suit 95% of drivers.

In my experience I found with Pilot Sport A/S 3+:

1. Pretty good summer grip. Not PS4S levels, though.
2. Really good tread wear. Great choice for long road trips.
3. Pretty good cold dry and reasonably good cold wet.
4. Very poor on snow and ice. Would not want to try to drive up a snowy hill.
5. Convenient having only one set of wheels.

With my X3 M I decided to go with Pirelli Scorpion Winters. I've always used the all-seasons for winters since Chicago roads are salted and plowed well enough. I'm curious to see the difference.

Why does everyone refer to LCI in post on parts that are the same as a pre LCI when they mention their 2022. I am selling my 2021 and getting a 2022 X3MC but I don't see the pointe in adding LCI to all my post. Nobody cares that it's an LCI if you mention your car is a 2022 we will know it's an LCI.

I am planning to swap in Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4's very soon with the winter approaching in the northeast. They seem to be the best AS tire for the car from what I have read - someone please comment otherwise

I am still running stock conti's and they are quite awful - will probably hang onto them for end of lease (~5k miles on them)
