Well, I've been rolling on the Hankooks throught the blizzards that we've been having here in Chicago, and I gotta say, best snow tires I've ever ridden on. My opinion, they are even better than the blizzaks, especially when you factor in the price.

Non-stop traction!!!!

i am using the nitto sn2 snow tires and they are awesome. i have been able to put them to the test now with a couple of big storms lately. they seem to grip better on wet, slick, and full of snow rather than on dry pavement. extremely awesome tire

I've had 2 sets of Nokian Hakka RSI's and loved them. I can't say they are the BEST out there as I have not tried all the snow tires, but I can not imagine anything handling better. . .

When we have REALLY bad weather I perfer to drive the EVO rather than my Chevy or Toyota 4x4 trucks. . .

Nice comparo picture. If you are on a budget or going to stud the 'Kooks or just an average slow winter driver I'd get the Hankook. Otherwise, if you really like to push your EVO in the snow I'd get the Nokian. Althought the major tread shape is the same, the siping on the Nokian appears superior. . .

I haven't used snow tires on my evo, it doesn't really go out in the snow. However from driving other cars with snow tires, I'd definitely go with blizzaks.
