Nothing beat the grip of my old p-Zero's, but that was a different car...

I have the Bridgestone 950's on now and I'm pretty impressed. The stock XGT's were very cushy in comparison, though I have 17" wheels now, I still think the sidewall is stiffer. Good light snow traction, I didn't even have to put my winters on this year! We didn't have much snow here (CO), but they worked well in up to 3 inch fluff. My wife has the Dunlop 4000's on her car, 16", and they are a pretty good ride too, it wasn't on your list as it may be in a lower category I think they are a little better than the XGT's.

My other tire experience is with Falken Zeix, don't get em! Loud, wears quickly, and not all season like they say!
