Get 195s, slap some AliExpress fender flares on, and call it good.

What happened to swapping in your garage? How are you going to be able to afford the weekly swaps?

Just got back from 20 degree weather Los Angeles to freezing temperatures and snow-ridden Toronto. Thank goodness I swapped over to winters last weekend.

Both cars run dedicated winters. M3 runs 200tw in the summer, and the X5 had 315 steamrollers in the rear which I don't think would work particularly will in the snow.

CC2 for North America is extra long lasting. They're going to sell that until they bother to make the same longevity changes to CC3 compound.

i still stand behind my purchase 
we've been getting alot rain and they are still doing fine. going back and forth between the snowdragons and blizzaks, i find the ride and noise on the blizzaks to be garbage for daily driving.

Swapped on Saturday. I should crosspost this to the weight loss thread because I was sweating like R.Kelly at Disneyland. My back and legs were sore the next day.
I put the rears on backwards and only noticed after I finished
When I take these off in the spring, I'm colouring in the rotation arrow so I don't do it again

Got the Conti Viking 7 winters back on the i3 last month, but decided to stick to the Falken Wildpeak AT4W A/Ts on the Highlander since they are still brand new.
I did an immediate back to back comparison btwn the two cars on icy side streets this morning after school drop-off. It was surprisingly comparable wrt how much sliding / squirreliness I was getting in braking (several foot slides in both cases), starting (sideways movement in both cases), and turning. I was super impressed.
It did mean having to cancel my snow tire discount with TD, but turns out it was only 2% anyway.

Need all weathers for my SUV. With the CC3 delayed, are there any strong alternatives to the CC2 (ie, cleaner looking side profile yet still perform)?

Continental SecureContact AW, Pirelli WeatherActive are two competitors that are pretty much on par and look less blocky.
