OK, I plan to test things up north this winter and will let you know how I get on. For the really rough stuff I will use a set of chains anyway, just a pain to put on and take off everytime you hit a dry patch.
Last December I did quite a lot of miles in the American Rockies in a normal 2x4 325i with a set of SCC snow cables. No problems at all on ice and up to about 18" of snow as long as you take it slow.
