Default B6 S4 + Blizzak LM-22 + 3 inches of fresh snow = :-)....

2000ish BMW M3 + Unkown tires + 3 inches of fresh snow = Facing the oposite direction into a snow bank. Normally I dont gloat about others misfortunes but the S was tearing it up. They dont seem to believe in salt, sand or plowing right now in Pa, so It was 3 inches of untouched snow. I was going normal speeds on almost ever road without any slipage, sliding or braking problems. I will say the ABS in this car is damn good in the snow. Just wanted to share my story in case anyone cared :-)

Default JD, this is when having a dig camera in the car comes in handy. I would have loved to have seen a

pic of that M3!!

Default Probably on summer tires...

Just to be fair, the M3 is actually decent in the snow as long as it has decent snows...

I was just laughing at morons who think any kind of tire will get them around in ice and snow
