[Biturbos4] Winter Tire Help

[adam.schwartz at rcn.com]

Aurangzeb,
Yea! last night was bad! But my S4 was going right through it 
all with my Dunlop WinterSport M2's. They are great tires... 
How about last weeks blizard? I went right up my hill which 
was sheer ice. We could hardly walk on it!!!! I didnt even 
bother clearing my driveway last night( which is a hill)

Your best bet is to get a second set of rims and get 4 snow 
tires. If you do that, you will get through anything.. AND 
then you can go into un plowed parking lots and have a lot of 
fun too!

good luck
