I have this idea of mounting big Hella pizza dish lights on the E28 bumper, roof bars and ski racks, mudflaps, and making it into a ski car. Right now I drive my daughter’s Honda Element AWD with snows to the mountain, and it is pretty implacable on snow and ice. But not terribly interesting

But driving a RWD car in the snow alarms me, even though we used to do it all the time. I thought studded tires might help. So maybe Blizzaks and a couple bags of sand in the trunk?

One problem is the spare wheels are the stock 14”s, and they don’t seem to make Blizzaks (or much of anything) in 14”. I’m not gonna risk chaining up my 17” BBS. And cheap spare 16”s for BMW aren’t that cheap, unless I can find steelies with the right bolt pattern, offset, hub diameter.
