My recommendation would be the nokian hakkapeliitta. These are by far the best snow tires I've ever used. They're also reasonably priced.

Nokian Hakkapelita’s … used to run pirelli sotto zero 3 and blizzaks … never going back. Nokians are WAY better in the winter.
Nokian Hakkapelitas. They are expensive, but once you try them you can't go back.
Just an update, I managed to find 2 sets of Nokian Haka R3 a few hours prior to my trip to Leavenworth, WA. Got out of two snow storms without a problem. These tires are bomb!
I've just worn down a set of hakka blue 2. They are a nice driving tyre, but didnt last as long as i'd hoped.
I drive the same car and drive in rain seven months of the year and snow frequently when going skiing and the Nokian Hakka R3s take all the fun out of it. The remove the drama of water over the road, and sadly, near completely remove one's ability to drift across snowy parking lots. Even in the worst weather I am limited more by cars around me than I am my own confidence when driving this combination of Swedish and Finnish (I think) brilliance.
Nokian Hakka R3s is my preference. They’re pretty sporty, so the car drive much like it does on the summer tires instead of the splashy feeling I’ve had from other snows.
I personally know they are trash. Great advertising, poor engineering. Stay clear of Blizzaks and get Nokian.
I went from a set of nokian hakkapalitas to Blizzaks on a 2017 Jetta GLI. Learn from my mistake and never do this!!! You only save money until you need to get pulled out of the ditch.
Agreed, the Nokian hakkapalitas are exceptional winter tires. But, the Michelin X-ICE snow tires, I have heard good things (from friends, first hand).
