I didn't see the Poll. My vote, from that list, is for the WS-50's, and in the narrower size. As you probably know, narrower is better in the snow.
Yup, I had WS-50's in the old Benz in the stock 185/65 R15 size. They were awesome on ice & snow, but as expected, the sidewalls seemed made of jello on dry warm days.

It just seems like the dunlops are almost as good and cheaper ($62 instead of $80).
