Default hahaha - nice pic. I love it. I kept trying different things there because I couldn't it to rotate.

I just cranked the wheel on it to see if I could get the rear out, but it just tucked in and pointed right at the curb. I didn't see any point in correcting it

My Dad has out-of-car footage of it.

Default A6 - 215/55HR-16 Dunlop Winter Sport M3; A4 - 195/65HR-15 Dunlop SP Winter Sport D3

On the A6 I'm running AT Italia S5 rims; On the A4 I'm running the OEM Rims....

As far as the "winter" qualification....

Per Wikipedia.....

Hartford Connecticut typically receives about 48.0 inches of snow in an average winter; the record seasonal snowfall was 115.2 inches in 1996. The first snowfall typically occurs in mid to late November and the last snow of the season usually occurs in late March, although accumulating snow has occurred as early as late September and as late as mid-May in extreme events.

Default <gazes out window>yup only snowed 4x this winter & only 1/4" ice on the road. I'll be fine

The Yokohama all-season ad says it all...

"From scorching highways to snow-covered backroads, the AVID TRZ provides comfort, longevity, confidence and driving satisfaction across all road conditions"
