I'd wager my Nokians, on my dog's Saab 9000, are equal, if not better, than the Blizzaks. Nokians on all four wheels and the car, over 22 years old, still goes like a tank at Kursk.....

I have the Firestone Firehawks on the front, and Bridgestone's on the rear of my '03Z. They both have the same rubber compound. Couldn't find front and rears in solely either brand.
