Default Jim or anyone help with tire choice

I have searched and read the numerous postings on winter tires. I am considering the usual group:

LM-22 ($135)
WS-50 ($113)
Dunlop Winter Sport M2
??M3 fit and worth a try?
Graspic Ds-1 (cheap)
Pilot Alpin



From what I have read it seems WS-50 or LM-22 are the best bets. In NC we get more slush and a fair amount of ice, less deep powder (rare). Does that change your thinking?

Anyone try the Dunlop M3s?

Which will last longest?


Thanks.

For your area the best are the Dunlop Winter Sport or the Bridgestone Blizzak LM-22. They give the best combination of ice and snow traction without sacrificing dry and wet road handling. The WS-50 and Graspic would be better suited for the snow belt.
The Blizzak LM-22 does have better ice traction than the Winter Sport.
If I can help let me know.
Thank you
