Dunlop Wintersport vs Blizzacks?

In the middle of a snowstorm here in KY, the stock Potenzas that came with my 2001 S4 slip and slide. Very disappointing considering the good handling my '94 S4 had in this weather. Any feedback on these two babies for wintertime driving?

IMHO I would chose the M2s based on ice and packed snow result

I just thought they were a better tire for the weather I get in Northern Colorado. We have more clear roads or roads with ice and hard packed snow.

Re: Dunlop Wintersport vs Blizzacks?

I got the LM-22s last month, and am very pleased with their performance, both on dry and snowy/icy roads. Driving in the snow the last few days in Wisconsin has really sold me on these tires.
