Hello,
I am about to buy an A4 Avant (B7 platform) with standard fit sports suspension. I have been told by Audi to contact a national snow-chain specialist to see about fitting chains. It seems that wherever I go I am told they cannot be fitted. My current car, a B5 A4 SE has to use Centrax chains because of clearance issues with the steering arm behind the wheel. Steel wheels and snow tyres are not acceptable either for legal reasons. The part of France where I am going legally requires me to have chains. Surely someone must have sucessfully fitted chains to a B7 A4 with 17" Alloys?
Any helpful comments will be greatly appreciated.
