oxymoron: dry snow tire?

[c dyer]

Car is a '87 5ktq: anyone know of a winter/snow tire
that is fairly decent in the dry?

I'm looking b/c I go up to the mtns for snowboarding,
but 4/5's of the drive is accross the Mojave. (plus my
daily driving is in L.A., so...) My pavement needs
aren't aggressive--I mean it's stop-n-go, potholes
galore...maybe a high-profile SUV tire is what I
need!!

I'd like "snowflake on the mtn" symbol tires, but if
possible, avoid the high-silica compound. I think it's
that compound that is used to enhance ice traction,
but also wears very quickly on pavement.

One in the running is the Bridgestone LM-18; I don't
think it has the typical blizzak tread compound.
Thoughts? Suggestions?

t.i.a.
