After a year and a half, I finally got to drive the A4 in the snow this morning.

"Wow!!!" is all that comes to mind.

well, after getting michelin pilot sport summers on the 07 i bought in sep, i've given up on them. i expected them to be bad in snow/ice, but i'm sliding all over the place in relatively innocuous conditions. yes, i know i should get winters, but i don't care enough about summer performance to carry two sets of five tires (and wheels). and no, i don't blame the pilot sports, since they are awesome for their intended purpose.

i should've known, but i don't remember the old dunlop sports on the 00 a4 being as bad, although i eventually swapped them out for all-seasons too. i would've taken the a/s option at purchase, but i didn't like the contis.

so out with the (new and almost new) pilot sport summers and in with a new set of pilot sport a/s. $1300-ish down the drain. will be posting in the classifieds eventually, for anyone interested in the chicago area.

First snow here as well. Love the drive except the d@mn tires suck (factory continentals). No $ for snow tires yet... -_-. Also I don't have a garage so it's a b!tch defrosting every morning.

Has anyone done any protection to the undercarriage of their car?
