Not an M2 owner but have driven several winters now in my 1M with a dedicated set of snow wheels and tires and there are really 2 great options:
1) Michelin X-Ice 3
- Great in dry
- Excellent in snow and ice
- Good in warmer temperatures
- Quieter
2) Nokia's Hakkapeliitta R2
- Amazing in snow and ice
- OK in dry
- Poor in warmer temperatures
- Get very loud with more miles
I have owned both and as far as SNOW performance goes the Nokians are best. As far as an overall snow tire goes the Michelin's are far superior. in NYC/NJ winters we get a few really big storms and most of the winter consists of 30-50 degree wet/dry days and the x-ice 3 are far more suitable. The nokians are very soft tired and feel like you're driving on 3 pillows when it's 40+ degrees. Pricing is similar.
