Question what is a good brand of winter tires? Tirerack is showing a set of Pirelli 245/265 Winter Sottozero Serie II like a previous poster stated.
Any other winter brands? I don't care about the TPMS and don't want to swap tires off the stock black 19's due to fear of damage during mounting and balancing at various shops in the area.

There are many many makers of winter tires. Issues currently are the rims on the M3 are pretty unique in size.
If you want to use your VMRs your going to have to make sure the tire fits and clears the braking system or if it can even fit the 18s or 19s.
Here are a few decent treads, problems people are finding.
