4. I had much smaller sidewall on my 335i and did just fine

Remember that blizzard last year? I drove through it in my 335i from Philly to upstate with zero issues. And this was just RWD car with low clearance

So, 20s vs 19s is a wash on this car
wow, thats crazy haha... i drove about 3 hours in that storm, it was insane, but i would never do it when i had a 335. i think I'm going to go with the 20" pirelli scorpion ice and snow rft, i couldn't find the nokian tires anywhere. should the 11" width be a concern? and how big are the rim/tires on your x6m
