I'm very happy with 195/65-15 Hakka-1's on 15x7 Audi OEM steel wheels (fit over 
UFOs, got from Tire Rack) - starting fourth season and all the studs are still 
in, tread doesn't look all that worn. There are of course newer designs out 
now, but the Hakkas were so much better than the Blizzaks I had on my GTI that 
I got another set for that car as soon as practical.

PS
Anyone else not get any motherlist traffic starting yesterday?
