OK, I need some advice from my fellow Teeners that live / have local knowledge in driving from Stockton Calif to Seattle Wa- during the month of February. My inquiry deals with 'snow / road ' conditions during that month. * do I NEED snow chains - even if car is an full time Audi. * If stopped for chain check- do these CHP understand that the Audi has full time 4 wheel. * what are your local suggestions? I plan on making the mt trip from Redding to Medford in the day time..to me this much safer as there 'should ' be more traffic utilizing the road..thus clearing up any snow / etc. ANY suggestions is welcome.. ps I JUST bought a new set of Nokian WS all season snows for this trip..do I NEED to worry?? Thank YOU! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Thanks for the advice guys... I guess the best thing is to buy a set ...but I've asked the Audi dealer and they say NO chains ( in fact there is NO room for them on the front ( 235x40x18s) Only place is they rear- even then it's very close.
As for the Nokian WS they are snow tires that could be used all season. This is what I see folks use in Whistler Ca.. I'm headed up to volunteer in the Olympic Village during the games. Thanks again.. I would appreciate some local knowledge info regarding any sections of I-5 if possible- Any one live between Redding and Medford? |
