Snow tires what to buy

[c a l i b a n]

	nrw-s?  i cannot find that on the current nokian site. 
	in fact, they have a lot of interesting new tires and
	this choice is going to be very very difficult...

	i have found an nrw, listed under "all weather plus",
	but it says that it is new for 2000.  looks like a good
	tire, though i had previously been considering the 
	hakka q.  the site says that the q will last a long time
	in the dry...

	how is the q in the rain?  if i drive to tahoe in a storm, 
	the first two hours of driving will be in the rain.  i
	am willing to compromise a little in other areas for 
	increased snow/ice performance, especially when it comes
	to abs braking inthe snow.

	thankfully, i know that there will be a few listers with
	experience with many of these tires :)
