I have the "damaged" original wheels from my car and I'd like to put some snow type tires on them. Am I better off going with something like a Dunlop Sport 5000 which is a reasonable M&S tire or should I go all snow? I guess my question is how much tire performance am I giving up with a "snow tire"?

With the exception of very aggressive or high speed (110+) driving, there was no difference at all. I tended to enter some turms a little slower - but only a little. Exits were almost identical. They were also a bit quiter than the 040s which was a surprise.

I decided on them over other "winters" primamrily because other owners felt that their performance was similar to Summer tires.

my Blowtenzas. Gina had them up to 120 on the way to FW and liked them.

and they were great. driving in wintery conditions was a nightmare before.

How much snow will you get determines the type of tire, IMHO, not performance in the snow.
