No, unfortunately the 322 were damaged. Anyway I was on 17" Star Spoke 317 for the Winter on Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3. Those tires are simply great on icy roads and even snow so I'm good.
For the look, I would have loved to go with mixed 322 18" but I'm sure it's safer to be on 225/50/R17 in the snow. It should give more grip than the larger 255's with the 18's ...
Do you have mixed wheels or 225/45/R18 at both end ?
Love the thread of your Conti ;-)
Oh and by the way when I said I had kept the 18's I was referring at those 355M that came with my new X1 instead of going with the 19's upgrade like you did. I had enough of upgrade already with all the additionnal options and pkg I had to pay in extra that the insurance wouldn't covered. So I'm good with the 18's.
