I already swapped my snow wheel/tire set off for the season, but I'm planning a late season ski trip in which there will be a light snow storm.

The worst snow measure will be about 4 inches (typically less bc the roads will be continually serviced during the times that I will drive).

I'm a bit lazy (I have to swap the wheels myself), how comfortable are you personally on drive on NF0 Continental RX with 4/32nds on light snow, no ice ? (1 -4 inches).

Stop by Les Schwab and buy some tire socks. They used to take them back if you didn’t use them.

I have driven my Taycan in about that amount of snow with a different Continental all season tire. It did fine, but I did take it slow.

4/32" is your highest, average, or lowest tread depth on all tires?

lowest. But I have fairly even wear front to back. The deepest tread is 4.5.

I ultimately decided not to ski this weekend 😭 , it's the last opportunity for me this season.

By end of summer, these RXs are done.
