Changed over to winter tires (Blizzak) around Thanksgiving and put about 10K miles on them over the winter. No issues, handles great.
So far I have had good luck with Bridgestone Blizzak W80 snows for my Subaru Legacy sedan. I have a set of 4 that currently have 34,000 Winter miles on them and they aren't worn enough to require replacement yet - I should get another Winter season out of them. So for longevity I find these tires have done well for me .
Speaking with my local shop after my tire rotation, they recommended the Bridgestone Blizzak LM001 18" for when winter comes.
Any thoughts on this one?
Blizzaks have been great
Almost 10 years in the tire game and my favorite tire is the Bridgestone Blizzak. Performs great in the deep snow, very well on ice and wears well and are affordable.

I'll repeat the recommendation for the General Arctic Altimax and currently have them on my 2012 Golf. My previous Audi A4 had Blizzaks in the winter, they handled poorly (soft sidewalls) and wore very quickly but stuck well in our wet snow.
I had a set of kumho's on my 08 GTI and they were terrible. Very expensive and terrible performance.
