Michelin is the best tire brand.
I typically buy Cooper tires, good quality without the cost of Michelins.
For me it’s Michelin only; it’s the only tire where I can tell a difference between other tires
I always do Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.
My previous set were the Bridgestone Blizzaks. Now, I'm using a set of Michelin X-Ice. I've driven around the city and as far as Whistler/Big White (I used to go Cypress 3-4 times a week too during the winter). Blizzaks were a beast in heavy snow. But I think for what you're looking for, I would just go with the X-Ice. They're really quiet and the ride is really comfortable.
Hankook Ventus Noble 2. Good W-rated tires, high skid plate rating, wears well if run a few pounds hot.
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.
Among the low-cost good ones; Vredestein. Now I stick to Michelin (bought various X-Ice2/3/PA3) as I like that they won't feel like winter tires.
I've moved on to other tires but I can't help but remember all the times I heard the lie "Michelin is discontinuing the Energy Saver A/S"!
Michelin just always crack.
