F30 335i RWD snow performance

Hi, relatively new here. Can anyone tell me their experiences with snow and the RWD performance with snow tires? Any suggested tire packages? 18", 19", or 20"? I plan on keeping the stock 18" staggered wheels for my winter tire package. Thanks for any/all wisdom.

Used winter Bridgestone Blizzak LM22 on 1st 335iRWD, not too much of a problem.
Plan to use almost same setup with the F30 (Blizzak winters).

As for tires, usually you want to go with tires that are more like the square setup (225's all around) in winter, when you have a lot of snow.

Wider tires will tend to "float" on the snow, which isn't too good for traction.
