    You've got some dust on your sensor I think. Nice snaps though.

              It is like the R is winking at you and telling you how much fun 4 wheel drive is.

                Just kidding Rob. Hows the R in the snow? What kind of tires did you end up going with?

                  Since the smallest I could go was 17"... I decided... why bother. Besides... I'm a huge fan of people giving the R zero street cred (usually cuz they have no idea) whether its on pavement or snow. Like... "Hey honey, look at this idiot with his big rims and tires. I bet you he can't even get going once the light turns green." .................... NOT.

                  As such, my winter set-up is as follows:

                  These: (Eagle Ultra Grip Performance 225/40R18)


                  On These: (VW BBS RCs)

                    Re: Finally some snow!

                    nice.. i hate buying 17" winters.. i'm buying 2 new ones today to replace mine after my latest fiascos :(

                    right now i have 3 winters and 1 hockey puck/summer up front.. its funny as hell driving. all the power shifts from the slipping summer across the good tires



                    edit.. did anyone else notice this is the worst winter we've had in like 5 years at least.. we never get this much snow this early.. usually we get 1 dump.. chinook.. melt.. dry/brown.. then maybe 2-3 spring wet dumps..

                        It is making up for the nice weather we had around Halloween. Frankly I will put up with this again if I get to have as much fun at Halloween with the kids again.

                            That's a sweet pic Deuce!

                            I here you on the 17" winter prices...........if it wasn't for my ability to get them at cost, there would be no way i'd be running 18" blizzaks on both the passat and the vue! ("suggested" retail on mine is $418ea) But hey, the 18's look so Hawt compared to smaller wheels............ I guess one's gotta pay the cost to be the boss!

                              Awesome pic and looks like a blast! I wish I could be baller status in winter too but I am pretty sure 195-40-16s do not exist in winter tires, and supposedly narrow is better.....
