AAAcKkkK!! Chains on a quattro!

[waves@epix.net]

Sell em!!! Sell em now!!  Let's put it this way, if you put a good set of
performance winter snow tires on your quattro, and perhaps even stud them,
there is no way you should need chains. I've seen several of our customers
us 'em on their 2wd cars and once in awhile one will let loose and smash the
hell out of a fender.

I could see carrying the chains around in the car just in case, but if you
get stuck in a quattro, the snows either too deep (chains or not) or you
just shouldn't have been out driving. 

I'm kinda sorta doing my own tire test. I bought a new set of Blizzaks for
the wifes 5kq and a set of hakkapalitas (sp??) for my 4kq. Last night, in
the miserable weather, both tires worked very well.... so far. I'm dying for
a good snowfall now!
