I have Bridgestone Duelers on my Rover. If you're getting a lot of ice/snow, why not just get dedicated winter wheels and snow tires? I don't get enough snow for that to make sense, but I don't live anywhere near Canada.

I'd try Michelin, Continental or German Dunlops if they are available there.

If you go the dedicated route I recommend Blizzak's. They are great in the snow and reasonably priced. |

X2 on the Bridgestone Duelers - just make sure they are the Revos and not the HT.
