I have Blizzaks on my AWD BMWs right now, and it makes a huge difference.
If you NEED a great snow tire, nothing beats winter forces or blizzaks.
We got a big snowfall over Thanksgiving, I have these exact tires on my ND. They're great. Obviously they move around a lot more on dry roads but they are excellent in the snow. Acceleration and cornering are great and I had no issues on fairly steep hills either. Like any tire in the snow though, you must leave plenty of stopping distance.
Got an installed deal on Nexen Roadian ATX. I wanted an aggressive looking but functional tire, and these are three peak rated. Very happy a year or so in. $860 installed (BJ's).
Used to drive those on my NA and passed stranded vehicles daily in the same weather
They're great in snow/ice.
They can be squirmy on dry pavement.
I’ve been using blizzaks for almost as decade as my winter tires on my ND. My winter wheels are -1” and the tires are slightly larger in diameter than my summers (~1%). They grip and I feel confident when driving in the snow or rain in winter months.
I've had Hakkas, X-Ice and Blizzaks.
Blizzaks seemed to degrade the worst of the bunch and performance fell off faster than the X-ice and hakkas.
I got Nexen N5000 225 60 r18. It's slippery on wet surface (I can feel it especially on solid paint lines in the middle of the road) Got it 2 years now, and will never buy nexen again.
For whatever reason my Bridgestone tires always lasted half of their warranty if that, and generally sucked all around.
