Best Winter Tire Options?

What are the best winter tire options for the M5? I heard hankook designed a winter tire specifically for the M5 because of the weight(Hankook iON i*cept premium winter tire). Are normal winter tires enough?

there are no tires available to purchase at the moment in the usa, for the oem specs. since this is a heavy car you need to buy the correct load specs too.

As I plan to buy custom summer wheels R21/R22, I decided to use stock wheels for winter. I went with Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 SUV:
285/40 R20 108V XL
295/35 R21 107V XL

The load index is passable for the winter, when I don't plan to drive the car at speeds near 240 kmph

I had very good experience with MPA5 on all my cars and decided to stick to their SUV version. So far so good
