finally got some rain recently, very very impressed by the PSS’s, completely competent in the rain whereas the RS3s were always a bit hairy

Renn Motorsport rs-51 , michelin PSS 265/35/19 , recently refinished calipers with kawasaki green
Really liking the green and that your flat black has some shine!Nice wheels on the Q as well!
Any idea how much the wheels weigh?
Thanks
SQ5 are the standard 21" OEM wheels powdered coated gloss black
They were between 21 - 22 lbs each!
Put some winters on the Boxster for Tahoe runs and other trips to Yosemite, Sierras, Oregon, Nevada. 215 width front, 235 width rear, on 18x8 BBS SR all around. Summers are 20x10 rear on 285 width, for comparison. The tire is Pirelli Scottozero 3.

The chains are for rears only, RWD? Winters and chains, Hmmm
I appreciate your commitment to being you 
It snows in Germany, right? Rear engine RWD is actually a good snow car. If you try to leave coastal California, there’s mountains on all sides. Caltrans puts up chain control stops and won’t let you continue on the highway unless you have them. In this situation, you don’t want to buy the cheap ones at the gas station. The good ones go on easily. Yes, they go on the drive wheels only.
are those 15s? they’re tiny. Post a pic with the summers.
what are those, HRE M/P 40? Looks great.
HRE FF01 gloss white 20x10
He is probably implying it is smartest to put chains on ALL tires; not just the rears.
Chains are only supposed to go on the drive wheels. So in quattro, yes snow chains on all 4.
You say it likes its doctrine and its the ONLY way.
Why dont you look up the physics of extremely good traction on 2 of the 4 tires in very slick conditions; especially when turning.
The chains are for highways so there is no turning fool.
Wouldnt winters suffice alone? We are talking apples to oranges with quattro but I certainly dont see many audi quattros with snows and chains. And ya, all highways in mountains are straight line. C’mon now
Yeah fool, didn’t you know all highways are exactly straight, especially in California

he’s talking about his RWD Porsche Boxster
those highways are actually pretty straight…but to make your point you should post highways in California that you travel when you drive to the snow
No lock to lock turns on a highway. You move the wheel maybe 15 degrees off center in chain control passes. It’s usually a 3 mile to 9 mile stretch where the elevation goes to 8000 feet and it’s constantly snowing.
