Just wondered how it is to drive in winter on snowy roads?

On summer tires, awful. On good winter tires, spectacular!

My previous a6 with blizzaks were great. Just got the A7 so TBD this year. I'm hoping I can throw on my blizzaks on the 7

i picked up my S7 at the end of January, (in Virginia). It was kind of a spur of the moment purchase so i didn't plan accordingly. but on the summer tires, i did'nt do too bad lol.

Bought my S6 in early February and it had the summer tires on it. Heavy snow the day I picked it up. No issues. With all seasons or winter tires, should drive like any other quattro equipped car.

best thing about these cars in winter is that with good tires, they are almost unstoppable.

Agreed! We had a brutal winter in Toronto last year and with a set of Dunlop snows, my RS7 was amazing!

We're you running the Dunlop Wintersport 3D? Which rims were you running them on? Thanks!
