I disagree. The third generation tires placed on the 2010 models are definitely not harsh or noisy. Most performance tires are in the 300 treadwear range. I refuse to believe that a tire with a 540 rating will offer as much grip. The difference in price is negligible.
The cost of performance tires and frequent replacement is the price you pay in my mind.
If I needed Winter tires, I would use the BMW 19 inch set of tires and rims.
