Ditto w/ the other posters - the 2's are fantastic in the snow; actually makes me look forward to the snow. Right now we are in the 'doldrums' between having the summer tires on, and getting to play in the snow with the winters. Down in DC you can even get away with the performance winter tires and just keep the sport-handling party going year 'round.
That is what I've decided. While she's down and out for another warranty issue, I'm having some Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ thrown on. Looking forward to not having the run flats anymore. Had the older versions of the Pilot Sport A/S on my S4 and 335i coupe, and never regretted it in the D.C. area. Can't wait to see how much they've improved the tire over the years.
