I have got Falkens on the beemer and they worked fine last time there was snow. The GTS is on Conti's still.

Actually, thinking about it, the BM might have still been on Bridgestone RF's, can't rightly remember.

Some did, some not, some missing.
Either way, I think the seats in that Taxi will be un-cleanable!
