Almost 10 years in the tire game and my favorite tire is the Bridgestone Blizzak. Performs great in the deep snow, very well on ice and wears well and are affordable.
Pros: great in snow and ice

Gislaved snow tires from Sweden. I've been driving 35 years and never felt so good!
Pros: felt so good
I used to buy Nokian. I would say they offer slightly better ice traction over the Michelins. However they typically cost half more, and last half as long
Pros: better ice traction
Cons: cost more, last less
I have Michelin X-Ice 3 s on both a Dodge truck and a Hyundai Accent. They work excellently, although I noticed on the Accent they are not a great rain tire.
Pros: work excellently
Cons: not great rain tire
I only run Michelins on everything I drive, I've never had issues with the tires, and I figure if the cost of michelins saves me an accident, then they have paid for themselves
Pros: no issues, accident prevention
I currently have perelli sottozero 3 on my Stinger, which have been fantastic during winter track days and are rated for higher speeds than the x ice 3s are.
Pros: fantastic during winter
Between all of the vehicles I maintain I only run Michelin X-Ice 3 or Bridgestone Blizzak WS80 tires for winters. Worth every penny.
Pros: worth every penny
I ended up getting nokain **all weather** tires last October for winter in thunder Bay. I never once was worried about getting stuck or slipping even in the coldest of nights/mornings. They worked amazingly
Pros: amazing performance, no slipping
I had some on my E34. Gripped great in the dry, I avoided the gas pedal when turning/changing lanes in the rain. I gave it a bit of gas near the end of the turn to make sure I'd pass a Buick next to me when I almost ended up driving into the Buick because the rear end let go.
Pros: gripped great in dry
Cons: rear end let go
Vehicle:
BMW
Mine came with the bridge stones. They are a little noisier than I would like and they certainly don't offer the traction I want.
Cons: little noisier, poor traction
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
