Default Agreed. First decide what conditions you think you'll be faced with.
Then get on tirerack.com to see which winter tires work best for you. If you live in Alaska, you won't want the same tire that someone in the midwest wants, because you're likely to get far more snow. The midwesterner will be driving on dry pavement some of the time, while you might never see the pavement for months.
