[Biturbos4] Winter Tire Help

[Aurangzeb M. Agha]

Having just moved to the North East (Western Mass.), I'm exposed to
extreme weather conditions for the first time in my S4 and need some help
with winter tires.

First, a question about the tires I have: I currently have Goodyear Eagle
F1 (225/45ZR17) tires on my car which are great in the wet, but when
leaving Boston last night, I felt like I was slipping everywhere--were it
not for Quattro, there's no way I would have made it.  Anyone know how I
can find out what the Snow Rating for these tires is?

Secondly, what are reccomendations for good winter tires.  I've looked at
the surveyresults on the TireRack site:

Any suggestions?

	Thanks,
	Aurangzeb
