Question for TL'ers

I want to buy new tires but i have it down to two choices,
1. Dunlop Sport A2 (high performance all season)
2. Yokohama YK420 (high performance all season)

Now i bought bridgestone blizzaks last season and we barely got any snow , so they are pretty much bald, and they only have a speed rating of up to 100mph, i want a all season tire thats good in the snow , but can also perform, and maintain a reasonable budget!
looking for 215/55/r16

Heehee. Just yanking your "tire" chain Fred3113.

This is my from personal expericence, so you might want to get the opinions of other.

Michelins are not the greatest in terms of traction, but they do provide the most QUIET RIDE.

Dunlops ride the harshest. (Had 4 on me ex-wife's Accord. Had to change them out after 2000 miles cause they kept "hummin" on the freeway).

I think Yokohama's would be a good compromise. I had the M+S but never had experince with them in the snow. They do work well dry or wet though.

How about Bridgestones ???
