Does anyone have any input for selecting one of these tires for driving in Calgary? I can only read so much about one being better on clear roads, one better in snow, one not as good in slush, etc.

I have never used winter tires before () but this year I need to. Any input from somone who has used either Blizzaks or Xi3s would be appreciated.

My wife had blizzaks on her van last winter. They were good and we didn't have any problems or issues. Also seemd to wear well.
