As the topic says - What is the best winter tire?
I live in Stockholm, Sweden, but during the winter I'll drive most of the time in the snowy mountains. It's for my RS4 B7:love2:
I think that the have to be studless because I've heard that it's impossible to find studs for 19"..?

You can find some studded 19" tyres from Nokian (http://www.nokiantyres.se/dack?id=12091290&group=1.01&name=Nokian+Hakkapeliitta+7), not sure if 235/35-19 is the correct diameter.
You don't want to a very wide tyre in the snow.

if you drive a lot in snow the Blizzaks would be better choice IMHO, Dunlop is ideal winter tire as long as you are not up your arse in snow/ice/slush.....
I use Dunlop WS3 on RS6 and Blizzaks on Q7 for (when it gets really baaaad) ....
