I believe it's all in the compound in the tire, but still even with snows your just gonna roast them fast IMO. If I was you I would get a 4x4 more snowy days and when you drive your M, just respect it. There will be plenty of time May to Sept to drive the car like it was meant to be driven. I hope this helps.

That's what I'm leaning towards. Just take it easy in the dry conditions with the Summers, and drive something else in the really bad weather. Are there adequate winter/all season tires that fit the OEM 20s? That may be worth looking in to as well...
