I used to have Bridgestone Blizzak Revo1's on the TSX. (I'm guessing these came out just before they started the WS series of winter tires) and they sucked in the rain. They'd easily lose traction going up a steep-ish hill (like going up Kerr from Marine for example) and pulling out of side streets. However, they were great in the snow.

Just switched out the Blizzaks for XIce3's a few weeks ago since I really couldn't handle another winter with the Blizzaks. Traction feels better than the Blizzaks in the rain, but not as stable as the RE970 All Seasons I've been using throughout the summer/fall. (but I guess that's not really a fair comparison) I have yet to try them in snow or ice so couldn't really tell you how they perform.
