I put them on my M3 they day of the gold medal game last year. This year... 5 weeks later.. we have 10cm of snow on the ground. Hoping to put them on late next week. Might only get 6 months of good driving weather this year

I recommend Tire District... They're at 400 and Langstaff area. I bought my winter tires and wheels from them and the prices are very good.
If i'm feeling lazy I will be going back to get my wheels switched back to summers/stock.

I made the mistake of swtiching to my stock set of Pirelli's 2 weeks ago....the same Saturday of that freak storm we had.....got my car stuck on my street and had to leave it there for 2 days until the snow melted....
Then on Wednesday i had to take a cab home cuz i didnt want to get stuck on the hill going up the Gardiner at Spadina....

I didn't switch tires around and still have my summer performance tires on; For Toronto, it said to have some more snow this week, so I won't bring out my car until mid-April.

I will be putting mine in May when the car will go out from storage... too many potholes in Ottawa to take a chance! I also need to find time to install my springs & CF exterior kit in May.
