for those of you who bought blizzak LM22's did you just take off the piolets from our 18 wheels or did you buy all new rims???

Some have bought cheaper wheels and installed the 'snows' on them. Others have bought more expensive aftermarket wheels and then put the snows on the stock wheels.

Depending on your personal situation, this will determine what you do, I guess.

I ended up buying the Pirelli Winter 210s and will have 'em mounted on a new set of 17s. Most people on the board have said that dropping down to 17" snow tires would be better than riding in 18s.

I've got a 6MT. Are there 17" winter w/t packages that fit over the Brembos?

 

Yes, BMW3toG35C, there are some 17" set-ups for those riding with Brembos. You may wish to speak with a rep from Tire Rack or Discount Tires Direct and mention your ride's configuration....and then they'll suggest some wheels that provide sufficient clearance for the brakes, etc....I believe, the offset (of the wheel) is the deciding factor on what 17" wheel you can put on your ride.
