Default 6 Which snows,Nokian's or Blizzaks?

I just had my A6 Avant Quattro for about two months now and being that winter is on its way I think its time for a set of snows.

I work in a tire ware house so the discounts there for me but I want some opinions as far as what to buy. I want a good tire in the snow,ice, and slush that will have no problem in unplowed areas that have hills and turns. Also a tire that will do good in the rain and on dry type pavement when the snow is not there.Right now its a toss up bethwen Nokian WR's or the Hak 2's or the Blaizzaks.

I heard the Nokian WR's are very good and the hakk's are better but the Blizzaks are just as well except that the blizzaks will be eaten up if the temp rises above 40.

So whats everyone here running and what is better.

I run Nokians on my Subaru. I have the Hakka Q's. They go through everything. Not much wear once the weather warms up (but I put summer tires on as well). I have Dunlop M2's (which I think are discontinued) on my 99 A6 avant. They do well in the snow, but I will run Nokians once the Dunlops wear out.

Yea I have made a dicision.

I am getting the Hakka RSI's. Its a great tire that does well in deep snow and awsom on ice and when its wet and dry it performs good also.
