C400 on 19" Summer Tires in Snow
My C400 is on the Conti Summer Tires on 19" wheels (all C400's are 4-Matic).
We had a ton of snow in Seattle the last few weeks so i was a little worried, but the car was very impressive driving through fairly deep snow/ice in places.
Never got stuck once and very little sliding around.
I had read the summer tires are awful in snow/ice/cold temps but this was not my experience.
What are others experiences in snow driving on Summer tires?

I've got the Conti RFTs on and the C400 was a mountain goat (even gave my Land Rover a run for its money up a slushy steep hill) - really impressed with the 4matic system...

Yes my gf has a Q5 and honestly felt my car was better powering through the snow. Very impressive!
