Any where I can get a lift kit for my 330i? I know it’s weird to want a lifted 330i but it’s my daily and I keep getting stuck in snow so I wanna lift it and put bigger tires on but I can’t seem to find a lift kit anywhere, any ideas?

googled 'e46 lift kit'
basically youre just going to add spacers to the strut mounts, rear shock mount, and spring pad
you might be able to mix and match e83 rear springs/arms, wagon spring, etc to get more lift.

Maybe try snow tires instead
Maybe even some decent all seasons, I've got half worn Continentals and only got stuck once. Driving on summer tires in freezing temps is asking for an accident.
Kinda yea lol
The tires I want to put on are 255/55/17 winter tires

When SUV's are the new trend, but you don't want to ditch your E46
Why not just lift the X3 or X5? haha
205/45r17 summer tires that I have had for a while now
Also sounds like you're looking at an irrational solution for an easily solved problem. If you truly want to build a Baja BMW then by all means do so.
Otherwise this seems like a troll post.
Well, that contributes significantly to you getting stuck, then. With RWD in a winter climate, you should install dedicated winter tires if you expect to remain mobile in snow deep enough where a lift would come into play. Lifting the car, on the other hand, will destroy the car's handling 100% of the time you drive, for a benefit you will need only .0001% of the time, and cost more.
I am not looking for a ton of lift and I know putting bigger tires on would give me some more lift but I was just exploring options
