E63 Winter Tires and Wheels
New to this forum. Lot's of good info.
I'm getting out of my M5 and into an E63. Contemplating a 2011 NA vs. 2012/2013 TT. I don't have much interest in the 4matic yet.
I've had great success with my BMW 540 and M5 with snow tires and wheels from Tire Rack. Has anyone from the snow belt had similar success with the E63? Which brand tire works best for you? Which wheel size? Which tire size? I used same size tire on the BMW's so I could rotate them to get two seasons.
Thanks.

For the 2012/13 there are 18" snow applications that involve several different Pirelli or Nokia snow-specific tires. There are lots of threads about it if you do a search.
I do not know if the 2010/11 cars use a different wheel offset or different brakes, but I don't think so.
