the FZ4s have proven to be quite formidable in the snow.

great in the rain.

better than the conti-tourings in the dry, certainly better than RS-A's.

i would imagine the proxes 4 to be fantastic if your exposure to snow is limited and you're too lazy to get true snow tires. on a 330xi, it would make the car basically unstoppable in any weather.

that said, i did write those descriptions a bit wryly. ;-)
