The amount of siping (sp?) on the Dunlop is very similar to that of the Blizzak, and like I said, they performed wonderfully last season. So, I'm happy with my Dunlops, and a lot of other owners would agree.
Basically
New Dunlop Winter Sports > Old Dunlop Graspic, etc.
WS 50 is good for full time snow use. but dangerous on dry pavement because of lack of cornering ability.

Am I confused? WS50=Blizzak or Bridgestone?
