Winter Tire Question for DFW
Since I just moved to Dallas, I was wondering if anyone puts winter tires on their M5 or do you just not drive it when the weather gets below 40 degrees? Also, I'm guessing that winter is generally over by the end of February, right?

Thanks for the feedback. If it's ice/snow, I'm definitely staying off the road. It's the temps falling below 40 degrees and the Michelin's PSS turning hard that's probably a more pressing issue since it's going to be below 40 for awhile...especially if winter doesn't end until April-May. Again, thanks for the insight.

Every year is diferent in Texas. Hard to guage when you need winter tires vs summer. Some years we get snow/ice while others we get a few really cold days and that's it. My last car I just went with Conti Extreme DWS and those were amazing all season tires and stuck well to the ground.
