Anyone put winter rubber on an ED 320d?

If so, what did you go with on the 16's - It is pissing it down, so am not going outside - am I right in saying 205/55/16?

Just swapped mine over yesterday as my front tyres were nearing their limit. Mine is a pre ed model but the same wheel / tyre size. Put on Falken 459's. Well priced and seem to have decent reviews. A bit early to have a personal opinion yet but definately an improvement over the run flats I had on. Will not be going back down that route come next summer.

205/55/16 is spot on.

80 quid a corner seems about as good as it gets for a decent brand like goodyear etc?

Think I paid about £84 a corner delivered from mytyres. That was a month or so ago so not sure if price will have gone up now. Would buy asap as prices will rocket once the snow comes!
