One of the absurd things about the S4 and A6 2.7T, is that they mount speed
rated tires on them that are worhtless in the snow. You'd think a car with AWD
would come with good All Seasons. The target market for these cars cettainly
does, and are not pleased to find that a car that's touted to run SUV's off the
road in snow needs an extra set of tires in the garage to do it.

No, but their tyres really do suck...
