Don't get me wrong - they are great tires. But so are Michelin. If you look at Tirerack.com, the Michelin X-Ice Xi2 is the top rated studless snow tire right now.
You have to be careful though because with the RFT tires, you are generally getting a "performance snow" and because of this you don't actually get the Multicell compound on the Blizzaks (LM-25).
I've owned X-Ice (awesome on our Nissan X-Trail AWD SUV) and X-Ice Xi2 (even more awesome on my e46 325i) and now I have the Dunlop Wintersport 3D RFTs (not as awesome but still really good on my e90 335i xDrive) and I also owned Goodyear Nordic (Terrible - and so was the Neon they were on) way back when.
If you buy one of the big name winter tires, you aren't going to be disappointed.

I got the Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3... I've already read some reviews and they say it's pretty good for winter. What do you think?
