Blizzaks are the top performer we carry, hands down. The LM line for a more sport based low snow climate tire, the WS for heavier snow/making the car a tank in winter.

I'd second that. I ran WS50's for 2 winters on some stock EVO 8 wheels I picked up, the car is unstoppable. Accelerates, turns and brakes like mad.

Looking towards the closeout LM-25's this winter as my WS50's are done and I'm desiring a more high speed performance tire than the 50's were.

I have the Blizzak LM's on my car and I love them. Not as good in the turns, you can get a little tire squeel, but un-like the stock Advan's, they last...I'm in my second winter on the same tire's. 10-12 thousand miles on the Advan's and I'm already at 23-25 thousand on the Blizzak's with ton's of rubber left. There AWESOME in the rain and snow!!!!

The new Blizzak LM-60's have a special compound that sticks to ice. I've heard and read good things including first hand reviews on this forum. It sounds like a good fit for the conditions you describe.

I definitely recommend the blizzaks, I use them currently and they're great. Also the ride is so damn comfortable compared to summer tires.
