They do the job well. For about $150/ea new they are an awesome snow tire. Really good on dry as well probably better than the OEM tires. Are you interested?

Anyone know (or have experienced) which one is better? Blizzak WS-50 or Dunlop M3?

I haven't decided on the rims yet. Any suggestions? Maybe black steelies are alright ....

Oh yeah, how do our TPMS work? I don't want to screw anything up.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you are driving mainly snow and ice , the WS-50 tires are fantastic. They will wear faster on dry pavement and when it gets above 10 C. They provide you with a softer bit mushier ride. I presently use these and I will get them again because they are excellent for my conditions.
If you drive mainly dry roads but travel through some snow and ice these are a better tire for you, they are more performance orientated.
It depends on your particular conditions. You have the X either one will work great.
You can leave your TPS in your other tires for summer it won't hurt anything , your tire pressure light will come on once in a while, but thats all. A lot of peeps don't worry about the sensors.
