who is having fun driving in the NOREASTER? UPState NY
I am. ASR on the 180 fwd is no where's near quattro, but it still works great in the snow with great snow tires. Plus I was the first one to work this morning, and everyone else either owns a suv or truck. The look on there faces to see me there at all, and to be first, Priceless.

Goodyear ultra grips are working very well - almost too well to have any fun
The 4 year old (and discontinued) Michelin Arctic Alpin were great, but just got replaced last week when the Ultra grips went on 'end of season' close-out!

A good set of snow tires make all the difference! all seasons tires....
in the northeast are ok untill we get a severe storm like this and you will have issues. The nokian tires I have still handle well on dry pavement and wet, and have a "z" rating as far as I remember. they are exspensive, but well worth the money.

my second car is a A4Q b5, but I left it at home....
because I know it does great in the snow, but I wanted to thrash on the TT a little today. plus the reaction from people at work made it all worth it.
