maybe if i lived in southern california where theres hardly ever any rain or below 60 degree temps i could run it as a DD tire. but we get 30-40 degree mornings up here for half of the year
Have you driven the latest version of the RS3? It doesn't sound like you have based on your description. I don't know about loud, but the current RS3 certainly heats up fast enough and is definitely not useless in the rain...well that could be subjective. Are you comparing the RS3 to a Conti DWS?
