Without question - HAKKAPELIITTA Rsi Winters are outstanding.
Having tried many of the other brands (on my 3rd BMW) these tires have
outperformed all previous makes. Incredible grip in all conditions, quiet -
yes - quiet and ok at highway speeds and on on-ramps.
I put 215's on my 2002 540 and have had no issues.
My experiece living here in north Subury Ontario canada on a undeveloped
rural road no snow plows and steep 45 degre hill for a drive way is the
michilin artic alpines for ice and snow.

I doubt you have a 45 degree drive. That's twice as steep as most ski
slopes,
and almost as steep a slope that snow will stick to. Perhaps you mean 45
percent?

Let's be sensible here. The best winter tires are the ones on the commercial
airliner that takes you to Florida.

I've been to Florida. I disagree. Strongly.
