TireRack has them available. You need to inquire under 2012 model year. I ordered the Breyton Race GTS in Matte Grey.

Now all I need is a car to put them on.

Just put the order in from my dealer. From my understanding, it is a pretty standard winter package across the world.

I called Tirerack and the only thing they have available for the 1M is the Sport Edition A7. I too am searching for something better.

Very true, only 1 18" offering. I chose the 19's as I'm hoping to not use the car in the worst of conditions but will drive routinely in the cold and "after" the snow is cleaned up. I personally prefer to to keep the performance and look as close to optimal and am not going for pure snow storm performance.

I'm hoping to sneak home during a storm and watch them clean up the snow before heading out in it.

I had originally ordered the setup with the Dunlop WS 3's but the rear's are not available so I needed to switch to the Blizzak's. I've run the Dunlop's before and really liked them. Hoping the Blizzak's are at least as good.

I've driven on both and there is no noticeable difference.
