Winter Tire Recommendations

I'm on tire rack now looking for new winter tires to put on my stock 5 spoke 18 inch wheels. The 2 I'm stuck between are the Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 and the Pirelli Winter Sottozero Serie II. Which of these do you guys recommend or is there another tire out there that I could put on the stock wheels you would recommend? I'm in central Illinois so it does typically snow pretty hard at least a couple times per year.

Also in Illinois. After I bought a set of SS factory wheels & tires, I traded my factory 20s to another local guy on here who had a set of 18s with Firestone Winterforces installed (so I'm not sure of the $$$). He used them for one winter, I've used them for two, and they've been great! Plus they have a mean-looking tread and sidewall.

I'm in New Mexico. About to take my winter tires off for the year. I'm running Dunlop Winter Maxx WM02. I went 1 size down to 245/45R19. They did great in the snow, never lost traction (unintentionally lol). They were fairly cheap, I think because they are a new model. I don't know whether they are available for 18"
