I had the Nokian WR on my '02 TL-S and I loved them. Maybe due to less torque and FWD ... it's a good pairing ... but RWD and tons of torque ... not good.
PS My wife's TSX I have a set of Bridgestone W60 ... more than 4 seasons and tons of tire tread left. I'm usually a Nokian or a Michelin guy ... but I'm really impressed at how long the Bridgestones have lasted (and I know the winter compound goes only 1/2 way ... then all-season compound afterwards ...)

The new generation snow tire from Michelin : X-ice Xi3, has been getting really good reviews.
Bridgestone has not updated it's Blizzak snow tire product line for quite a few years already.

Hope you have better luck with tire wear than I did ... I had them on my G37 ... didn't last me 2 winters (I had them as dedicated winters since there is so little snow where I live).

Also got a set of Lattitude X-ice Xi2's for my wife's '09 Odyssey. Can't even begin to explain how much better these are than the Firestone all-season's that were on it. The Firestone's were horrible. My wife is not a confident driver in bad conditions, yet she was just fine on the snowy/icy roads today with the new tires.

Just bought a set of X-ice Xi3's and had the chance to try them out in poor conditions over the weekend and today as well. I'm very impressed with them. Much better than any all-season's I've had in snow and icy road conditions.
