Hello guys!
According to the following Norwegian test from october - 2006, (the latest I was able to find) they're equally good, I would say. I will point out that the test is for tyres meant for the Nordic market, so I dont know if the same tyres are available in Slovenia, unfortunately.
Vinterdekk-test: Piggfrie dekk
Translated it will be about as follows:
Bridgestone Blizzak Nordic:
Returns as one of the best unstudded winter tyres.
Grip on ice is among the best. The steering appear precisely, and returns good feedback from the base. A little bit poorer performance on snow, snowslush and wet tarmac, though.
Overall a success.
Michelin X - ice:
Defending it's position as one of the best. (unstudded.)
Grip on ice among the best. Response on snow and grip on slush is great, but slightly poor brake grip on snow and a bit heavy steering obstruct the tyre from reaching the top of the list. Handling on dry tarmac is good.
I'm very happy with my Bridgestone Blizzak Nordic in dimension 225/45R17"
I can confirm they are very good on both snow and ice and suit the civic very vell in my opinion. They performed very well over the mountain passes in southern Norway (about 1200m above sea level at the highest point, winter most of the year at this height) between our two largest cities, in fact I was really impressed.
