    Hey Alex

 Same thing happened to me the other day, Took the car
for a joy spin for a couple hours on the snowfilled
streets of W Mass
 first off the car handled great plowing through the
snow piles got out once to see what kind of clearance
I had and the snow was up to my door cill(have
lowering spring) and my controll arms, tierod
ass..,cv's, basically everything was covered in snow
front and back packed in there good,

 the next day went for a ride clear streets(plows did
a wonderfull job) and getting up to 50mph or so the
wheel would shake as well so I cleaned all the hard
packed snow from the underside of the car and the BBS
wheels and no bounce. Love my quattro.

  And for those guys talking about the Euros and
slushy conditions I have the non-turbo Euros for the
type 44's and with 80-100W Hella bulbs, any ice or
slush that gets on my lights quickly dissapears with
the heat from the bulbs, and vision is great as well.
 In weather like this yellow bulbs would probly help
Thanks
