I can see from their choices, Symmetry, Hydroedge, and X Radial, I'd pick the X-radial. With $70 off for buying 4, that means $115 plus $15 and then -$70. Pretty good deal.

Dropped the hammer - go the X Radials by soonerdew

Well, after discovering (by surprise) that my local Sam's had my 225 60R16 X Radials in stock rather than via special order, I dropped the hammer and bought a set this weekend. Obviously only a couple of days on the new tires so I have faint new experience on them so far. I was going to hold off another week until I *really* did the penny test on my existing tires and found two of them were technically no longer street legal...
 
Based on very limited experience so far, the ride is marginally firmer than the Symmetry's that were replaced, but I suspect that's due as much to the presence of actual tread on the road as much as the tire itself
 
Will advise as I've gained more miles. Thanks for the input, all.

Here I am a week late and a dollar short.
Hope your Michelins work out.
For an all around tire with excellent bad weather traction, I'm very happy with Dunlop SP60s. They are in the top four in their class at Tire Rack ratings by customers. I've had them on two cars now, they are excellent in supersnow especially.
 
Good luck with the Sears/Michelins.
