Winter is a coming! Which one?

Winter is almost here, which means it's time to switch to the steelies. This year, I decided to purchase a set of dedicated winter tires for safety. (I'll be driving at night alot more) My only problem is deciding on the "best" set.

The first is the Toyo Observe G-02 plus, priced at $119.99/tire CAD.

The second set is Bridgestones renown Blizzak WS-60, priced at $125.99/ tire.

Tire size is 185/65/15 for both above tires.

I'm mostly looking for treadwear, but I still want good snow and ice traction. Any opinions are greatly appreciated. Also if their are any other tires you recommend , please do so. Please only recommend studless tires.

Thanks in advance.

Yeah, i got the Toyo Proxes 4 on the car. Just an amazing tire! I suspect the Observe should be just as nice.
