Justin - you ever sort out wheels and tires?
Also - I have to confess to being an Audi guy too. Just got a B6 and loving it.
I DO miss some of the E90 330xi features - but not the payments. : )
When's the Rennlist Audi A4 GTG? Should be in a snowy parking lot some day so we can play in the snow.

PS. Reminder - Tall Pines Rally in two weeks!

Try going to Audiforim.ca and look for the thread "thinking about parting out my b5" under audi parts his user name is Rocky.ca. He has a few sets available. I had offered him $400 for the set and he agreed but did't have the car back yet. I found another set of 16" OEM's wioth snows on them on Kijiji and jumped on them.
Good luck

I got my winter tires finally. I found the ad in Craigslist. Turns out the guy is a new mechanic at DFC and is also a Porsche guy with a 928 that he tracks. He recently moved here from Ottawa where I used to live and was a mechanic at a place called Robson Racing which is where I used to get my Mazda 323 GT serviced. He is also and RX-7 guy like myself, so we had a great conversation. Pleasant experience all around.
Thanks for all the help and advice guys!

It's funny that you guys say that because over on the audiworld.ca forum, they actually have Audi get togethers what seems to be all the time. As an Audi owner for the lat 8 years, I have absolutely zero interest in taking my Adui to a group meet and spending hours talking about Audi's. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a great car, but aside from maybe the S or RS series or an R8, there is nothing overly exciting about these cars.

Honestly, if they made a plow hook-up for my Audi, I'd have a second job on snowy weekends.
I've tried everything to get it stuck - took off the undercarriage as a result, but man-oh-man does it ever hook up in the deep snow.

That it does. I just put on my snows and this will be the first time driving that car with them, and I was impressed with all seasons on a quattro. I suspect i will be totally blown away this year.

YOu are correct about the excitment factor in an Audi. They are an engineering masterpiece that make a great dialy driver and awesome winter beater though!
