I second the Blizzak LM-22 or LM18 choice. Great tires, I can hardly feel the difference between my 17 summer inchers and my 16 inchers winters. They're also pretty quiet for such a thread.
Pros: great tires, pretty quiet

i use pilot alpins! arctic alpins were not too sporty...... especially when wet, so i went with pilots. pretty good tyres in my opinion but not the cheapest.
Pros: pretty good tyres
Cons: not the cheapest
I've bought 4 new Bridgestone Blizzak LM-22 winter tires last year and I found them really good. I uses to have a set of Michelin Artic Alpin on my old car but these Blizzaks are much better in my opinion.

I pulled a 2.19 on the stock 195/65-15 Micheline MXV4s.... and I don't I can do better with a few more practice runs.

Vehicle:
