    Has to be FWD, I have almost bald front all season tires on my S4 that is lowered 2 inches and it plows through snow in Canada. My problem isn't getting going, its stopping

    Thats some nasty snow for Las Vegas - I'm sure the sarcastic large team of snow plowers are having some sleepless nights.

    Wow, got a lot down there. We had ice + snow this week. Beautiful scene but had no traction since stockers tires aren’t made for winter. Hope things are fine with you there. Be safe

    Dude you really really need to start posting smaller goddamn pictures! I tried to look at the ones you posted in the AZ/NV section and there was so much going on that i had some kind of system overload, and my computer crashed big time.

    Re: Snow in Vegas and got stuck!!

    For the global warming guys, it gets cold enough to snow every year in Vegas. We have had snow 4 times in the last 7 years in the Vegas valley. What we don't have is the precipitation. When we have had snow, it usually was never valley wide because just like our rain it usually only hits certain sections of town depending on what direction the storm is coming in from. For the record the storm that hit us pretty much hit the entire country. Seattle got a bunch of snow from it, and it stretched downward to SoCal dumping snow in the high desert (which is known to happen as well) and basically moved across the country.


    Tyson, what side of town do you live on? Looks like the SE but can't read the street sign due to the camera flash.

    275/30/19 performance tire will not go through that much snow. In snow you want more sidewall and a skinner tire. Do love the RS4 wheels on the A3.

    It's not the effect, it's the cause we haven't determined!


    As far as getting a FWD stuck in that little amount of snow: "YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!"
