Wallace, Yep, my experience is with the asymetric 55 series Nokian NRWs. If I remember correctly, we had a set of 15" NRWs for a while and they weren't nearly as impressive dry weather tires. Still damn good in the snow. Of course, you could pick up an inexpensive set of 16" wheels and run 205/55 16s :) Lee '95.5 S6 avant '96 A6 quattro avant
