It's been a while since you asked, but one thing i have done in the past is to downsize one step (in this case to 17 inch) and get a thinner, taller tire that keeps the circumference the same -- this means different wheels, but i have used steel in winter, with some kind of dressy hub caps -- maybe not a great idea on such a beautiful machine, but it has worked wonders for me in another car - a Miata actually.

For what it's worth, i'm going to look into it for next winter on our new EX.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta SUV 5. A little pricey but I have found Hakkapelitta's to be excellent winter tires in the past.

We took a Demo out for a Drive in the big Snow Dump we just got last weekend... close to a Foot of Snow in 3 days.

I told the Salesman I wanted to totally make sure that the EX35 could dig itself out of any deep Snow, Residential Street or Back Alley situation.

He said lets go ! I said great, somebody to push me out if I get stuck.

This would be our third Ride in a Week.

If I'm gonna buy one of these, it better not get stuck !

So we found some Streets that had big Drifts and I planted the EX35 right into the thick of it and stopped.

Then I started again and the EX35 just churned away and got us out each and every time.

I'm satisified with the OEM Dunlops... I think they will serve us well.

We pick up our new 2008 Aspen White (Pearl) tomorrow.

I don't know which tires your local Infiniti Store Sells, but where I work, we recomend Blizzacks to all of our customers for winter driving.
