I'm not saying CR is the end all-be all authority on winter tires, or that the Blizzak isn't a wonderful tire. I'm merely suggesting the OP add the Xice to his/her consideration. My local tire service folks say that the Xice is extremely popular here in Alaska, and great for the typically icy roads we experience throughout the winter.

Blizzaks are an incredible snow/ice tire.
