Winter Tire Recommendations for Colorado

Hello All,

Moving to Colorado soon and need to grab some winter tires for my RWD 330i. I have 18” staggered wheels from the sport package, and the only tires i can seem to find on Tire rack that fit my standard wheels are the Pirelli Sottozero series II. I am looking to replace my 330i with an xDrive G20, but supply is currently low due to Covid so finding a lease hacker worthy deal has been tough.

Any recommendations out there for other options, maybe used Sets in the Colorado Springs area?

Thanks for the help!

Have you looked at Nokian Hakkapeliitta R tires? These tires are unstudded snow tires with superb traction in winter driving conditions. Downside: can feel soft and mushy.

Winter performance tires - like Pirelli Sottozero Series II or III - are an excellent choice. I had a set of Pirelli Sottozero Series II (run flat) when residing on the East Coast. Great tires.

Recently relocated to Colorado as well. I am running the Sottozero 3s on BBS SRs, best winter set I've ever had.

At least in Aurora / Denver they keep the streets pretty clean and snow usually melts fairly quick. Unless your in the mountains, I wouldnt sweat snow tires all that much.
