Never heard of any of the ones listed above.

I bought Blizzaks for my car for $75 with 15'' steelies (used only one winter). They can't be too bad... although I can't say I'm actually looking foreward to testing them out.

My gf got some Winterforce tires off tirerack for $50/piece last year. They are not the quietest tires ever made, but they kicked ass in the snow/ice.

dunlop winter m3s hands down. i have evn had them on all summer cuz ive been waiting 6 months for my rims to show up. they were better then the oem michlins in every way in the summer and great in the rain. i put 20,000 miles on them most during weather above 60 degreee which dunblop says not to use in cuz tread wear decreases massively and i still have more then 50% tread
