You have to decide for yourself. Personally, I want the best snow tire and best summer tire. I had some P7000 Supersports that I liked a lot and they got me through a few winters, but I'll never give up my Blizzaks now. I just drive too far to work for there to be a compromise in snow. I used to drive 4 miles to work which was fine with all-season tires, now at 34 each way, I'm glad I can still drive 65mph on snow.
