I have to agree with you on the sipes. I had wished all non-winter tires had the sipes for water like winter tires. But I've found that the summer max performance tires do just fine without the sipes. So now all of my cars have true winter tires and then max summer performance tires. With the exception of my Excursion that has BFG T/A KO2s.
On the winter tires though, my 4.8 came with the blizzaks when I bought it. Otherwise I do normally go with the General Altimax Arctic so you don't pay a premium for having a winter tire with the best performance for only half the life.
