got a foot of snow at the house last night.... should of taken a pic of the audi but didnt think about it... just got back from work in texas last night. the car was almost invisible... looked sweet... i sorta wanted to drive around without brushing anything except windshield off, but then i remembered what happened last time i was lazy and hungover and did that.... rubbed a telephone pole 2nd day i had the car and creased back right door.... i really disappointed myself on that one

Hey guys,
Not to sound noob, but whats the purpose of swapin the wheels when the snow comes? I know theres the deal with handle'in but, what other reason is there?
And MAY I SAY WOOOOOHHHH you got freakin close to that car in the parking lot man! jeeezzzeee. i cant wait until i can do that thow! im on LongIsland and we got like 4inches over here, it was good enough for a quick spin wippin around that AWD but it was blizzard like conditions and i was already slightly 'impaired'

Sometimes because people dont want to have tires swapped every season and sometimes because the salt eats away at their $2k rims.

Or like me you could curb one of your BBS's due to slick conditions and things out of your control. I would rather have bashed my wheel than another car, however I wish it could have been a stock of junk set of wheels..
