Owner reviews for tires
I stretch 225/35/19 Ironman Gen 2s on 9.5 wides, they seem like they have more stretch to give too.
Get a second set of wheels with some Bridgestone Blizzaks and you'll be fine in pretty much everything other than real deep snow; then the bumper becomes a plow.
I love driving RWD in winter, especially a good one with a torquey V-8 and a manual transmission like my BMW 550i. It handles so amazingly well in the snow, so effortless. Obviously, high quality winter tires like Nokian Hakkas are an absolute requirement.
I run falken tyres have done now for about 5 years! Mainly just because I liked the look of the tread patterns ???? no issues so far though!
I dailyed my E36 BMW with just a pair of Blizzaks on the rear, got me through Wisconsin winters.
I wanted a drifty car to put known amazing snow+ice tires on (Nokian Hakkapeliitta) and wound up with a BMW e36 with the small 6cyl. The tires made it way, way less drifty than I’d hoped- even in 10” of heavy lake effect snow, it just grunted along like it was raining & 50°F. I didn’t even have to wait for the snow plows because *it plowed the snow*.

I blew two Goodyear Territory RTs on a trail and wouldn’t recommend them. The stock tires are passenger car rated.
In my experience the wet traction on the Goodyear tires was terrible. Switched to some Falken Wildpeak H/T and see a lot better wet and dry traction.
