We are in a small but fortunate dilema.
Which winter tires (and mags we understand are necessary, not steel rims) to buy.
The car comes with summer 255x35x19
The winter tire size is 225x50x17
The dealer is offering:
Gislaved nordfrost Model ???,
Pirelli Sottozero W240 series 2
Dunlop winter Sport 3D

Other tires stores have recommended the following:
Michelin x ice 2
Michelin P A3
Blizzak LM60
Nokian Hakkapeliitta (not sure which model)

We drive aprox 120 kmph to max 160 kmph.
We drive to the country.
The tires need to last for at least 3years.
Should be aggressive enough to handle good cornering and stability as well as a warranty.
Any previous experiences with any of these.
Your thoughts and expertise would be greatly appreciated.
