But, joking aside, I was blown away with the performance of the 3 series with these tyres, particularly given the middle-of-nowhere village road conditions I was faced with. If anything was going to cause me trouble it was ground clearance (understandably) but grip for starting/cornering/stopping was beyond my expectations.

Couldn't recommend it enough - I'm a total winter tyre convert.
That's great to hear! I was tempted to get a set for mine but didn't think we really get all that much snow. Mind you, it's only 3 roads off my estate onto the main road (which are downhill) so the main road is usually clear. It's just getting back up the hill which is the problem! Bet winter tyres would definitely be helpful there.
