Question Questions about tires and color combination

Hey guys,

I need some advice. I ordered a 2013 335i last Saturday with the following configuration

Mineral Gray Metallic
M Sport Line
- 18" 400M wheels with Mixed Tires
- Highlight trim finishers Black High-gloss
- Aluminum Hexagon Interior Trim
- All Season Tires
- Black Leatherette
Technology Package
Sport Auto with shift padles
Heated front seats

Here are my concerns

First, I usually contrast interior and exterior colors. So for instance I would choose the Beige Leatherette interior with a Mineral gray exterior. But this time I went with the Black leatherette for a couple of reasons.

1) I feel that the Aluminum Hexagon patterns would not look good with Beige
2) I am not fond of the black plastic around the transmission stick.

What do you think? Agree or Disagree with my choice.

Second, I chose All Season Tires because the car will be delivered to me around Nov and we get some weather around here. My SLK 350 and Mazda 6 with summer performance tires were useless when it snowed and the SLK would even slide in rain. While I am expecting the RWD BMW to be quite useless in snow as well.. is it worth sticking with All seasons or should I just get the summer performance tires ?

Third, Is is worth getting the Dynamic Handling package with has the Adaptive M suspension and Variable sport steering ? I don't think I will want to mess with the ride height etc much.

Thanks in advance.
