No room for chains! Look inside rear tires...would hit suspension control arms!

Make sure your quattro is turned on to full party mode.

Default dont listen to them...

That being said, you want more of the straight jagged edge for traction. ALL city ambulances and fire engines use this type

Default I've driven in some deep snow with M+S and the CHP stop in Bishop didn't ask for to see chains.

The conditions felt like R3.

Although that was in my A4 with sport suspension and 16 in wheels. I'd much prefer at least 17s, not the 18s I have now in snow.
