My best experiences have been with Hankook I-pike studless snows. I'd be willing to bet that they could hang with or out perform some of the pricier options listed here. They are great when roads are wet too.
Hankook Ice Pike's are the best all around snow tire that have used. Wear, road noise and dry handling were much better than Bridgestone's, and any of the others that I have tried over the years. No perceivable loss in snow traction on a TSX wagon under normal snow conditions.
Wears like iron, just like the R-S3, but doesn't need as much heat to work. I can leave the sprayer at home and just ignore them.
It'll be a huge leap over those junk Hankooks.
Get Hankooks or Firestones if you want to save a couple of bucks, while still having a great tire.
After lots of research I went for Hankook Ventus V12 Evo2 tyres and am very, very happy with them.
Can't comment on loudness as the S2000 is just plain loud, but have run these on the S2000 in both the earlier V12 and later Evo2 variety. pretty happy with them for a street tire, stable in the rain, predictable, and they seem to wear well (S2000's eat rear tires every 10k anyway on proper alignment specs).
i had them on my A6. I thought they were pretty good. would buy again.
Both are good budget performance tires but the uniroyals will wear faster. The Hankooks arent very good when wet, but the uniroyals are excellent as the name suggests.
I had the Ventus V12 Evos on my Focus ST, and I didn't like them.
