Re: BF Comp T/A VR4

I just wanted to add my $0.02, I have had BFG Comp VR4s
on my quattro from before last winter, and they are not too
good in snow and terrible on icy roads, personal experience, YMMV..

They are great in the dry, pretty good in wet, (warm rain etc.)

Hi Andrew,

Although this works on snow, I've just found out it doesn't work on icy road
'cause my Audi just slide right into the ditch on I-65 this morning.
It is still there waiting for da tow truck. Oh my god, I wish I had a
quattro.......
sorry for the bw

But Dave was basically right. The D60A2 are an "OK" tire, not great.
When I switched two cars over to the Touring T/A, I saw a great
improvement. The Comp T/A were even better, but I can't seem to
find them any more :-(
