I've run all sorts of AWD cars year round with snow tires like Blizzacks, Wintersport 3Ds, etc... my lowered RS4 does amazing year round in the snow with snow tires on stock rims... unless the snow is deep in which case I dive the Defender... but I'm not sure how the drive ration and AWD system on my pending R8 is going to do in comaparison.

Any first hand experience? Thanks!

Great to hear from ya! We were just chatting about you at the office and with some Audi fellers. Give me a call or stop by sometime. It would be fun to grab a beer.

He loves riding in his Recaro car seat and acclerating then braking fast! I did see the heli fly over that morning... I was half expecting a EuroSunday buzz. Isn't your heli a Eurocopter? :)<ul><li><a href="http://www.eurosunday.net/sacramento/cotm/0708/0708.html">http://www.eurosunday.net/sacramento/cotm/0708/0708.html</a</li></ul>

So, I guess no one here has mounted snows on an R8?
