I'm thankful at least one of my cars is on all-seasons this year

This time last year, both E9Xs were on summer performance tires; however, this year is different. The E92 has Pilot Sport A/S 3's in the front and Pilot Sport A/S 3+’s in the rear. The reason for the difference is because I messed up getting tires for the M3 in January 2015. It was the first car I had ever bought tires for and I didn’t know what I was doing. Long story short, when the M3 needed rears this year, I got a set of 4 and kept the fronts for the 3. The 3 was eating it’s fronts in early October, so I got it aligned and put the tires that had been on the front of the M3 onto the 3. If you’re wondering the 245 section tires fit fine on the front rims of the 3. The M3 runs an 18*8.5 wheel in the front whereas the 3, with the M-Sport pack, runs an 18*8 wheel in the front. While all seasons aren’t the optimum solution for the impending weather, they’re a hell of a lot better than the summer tires I had on last year.
