Came standard as "winter wheels" package for my E89 Z4. Used them Nov-April, 2011-2018 and sold them together with my car. They still had 5-6 mm thread of them! They were really good, a little noisy, but I guess I didn't "wear them down" properly (saw tooth wear). Good grip, either on dry, wet snow...not much on ice, but which "unstudded" tire has that.

Very good on snow, in corners. No drifting, no problems. I can really reccomend for snow and ice driving.

Had these on a honda prelude 2.2 VTI 1997 185hk and was very satisfied. They really had a sporty feeling in dry and was good in a blizzard with 30cm snow on the road.
they took me thru 10 winters in sweden. (along with it´s predecessor bridgestone LM22)

Great in the snow even up to 12" deep and driving in the melting slush was easy enough but braking on ice not as good as hoped.

Been using these in the snow this week. 100 percent better than the summer tires I was struggling with last winter.

I have used these tires on two high-powered RWD sports cars: a lexus IS350 (312 hp) and my new BMW Z4 sDrive35i (officially 306 hp but close to 330), the first with "regular" 18 inch tires, the second with run-flat 17 inch.

Those tires are very well suited to sports cars and sedans/saloons. They provide decent snow traction (as much as one can expect with a powerful rear wheel drive car!) but just as importantly very good dry and rain traction and handling in cold weather. Let's face it, it doesn't snow every day unless you live near the artic circle! So dry traction is very important.

Also critical is how the car feels, and the LM25 preserve the sporty feeling and handling of the car, albeit with lower grip limits as one can expect. Very stable at high speed (up to 120 mph/200 kph in my experience)

I highly recommend those tires to anyone wanting to enjoy his or her sports car of sedan/saloon below 40 F/5 C.
