I got my M5 last March.

I'm finding these days - especially with the colder weather and the ice that is coming along - that the M5 has poor grip! Sure, if I poodle along i'm fine but I really can't seem to get any power down at all. The slightest amount and the TC comes on - I get wheel spin when gently turning out of my drive and corners in general. Any application of power beyond a gentle pushing is met with TC!

Sure, I know it's a lot of power to lay down but I thought there would be a little more grip from the Michelins! I'm just grumbling because i can't hoon it around as much.

(Note - I don't have winter tyres)
