Anyone driving their 997TT in the winter/snow season

And if so, what are you doing for tires, etc.

Would love to hear your experiences. Thinking of an RS4, but.......

If you call a winter -20 deg and 3 months snow non stop - then buy anoher car for that period. otherwise if your winter time is 00-10 deg (celsius) u dont need really another car, just buy new wheels... pirelli or ug 7 good year... great ones

I've driven my 997S throughout the Chicago winter without any problems with the Contiwintercontact 810S snow tires.

The AWD in the 997TT should be even better than my C2S.

My only concern is the other drivers on the road...
