Snow Tire Price Showdown

[John Karasaki <johkar@teleport.com>]

I've narrowed my search for 205/55/16 snow tires down to the following:

Hakka 1 (studded)	$510.56
Dunlop Graspic HS2	$453.60
Bridgestone Blizzak	$480.96
Cooper Winter Master	$416.88
(studded)

All these prices are total, complete, installed on my wheels in Portland,
Oregon.  I am leaning towards the Blizzak's but the Hakka 1's are quite
reasonable, too.  Of course the Cooper studded tires are attractive, because
of cost.

I welcome any and all comments.  TIA.
