Well so far so good, ordered a set of 17" wheels and snow tires from Tire Rack (since the local people were a rip), but they won't be here for a couple more days. After that I say bring on the snow. The Quattro and ESP combine to keep me out of trouble, even when I try to get in trouble on purpose.

I don't live in Chicago, I live near Quincy working as a chiropractor (as my name suggests), we ended up with about 8-10 inches and it has been cold as ***** ever since. This car is amazing, suprises me every day. My girlfriend has a Pontiac GXP (supercharged) with snow tires on it and she got stuck in my driveway. I, on the other hand, backed right out of that bitch. She had been talking all sorts of **** about how California people can't drive in the snow, etc..... LOL Anyway, here are a couple pics of the snow.

Thanks a lot for all your advice.

THE VERDICT: You can drive in the snow on summer tires (when you have quattro and ESP). And with a manual transmission you can also slow down.

Do you have the Kumho All-Seasons on your 18's?
No, they are Pilot Sport tires

As a Canadian, I'll tell you the truth. If it snows in your area, then get snows. If it's a rarity, then get m&s, & if it doesn't snow at all p*ss off.
