Correction - they're both wrong - here's the budget one:
Are you sure they're wrong? What in particular is wrong with them if I can ask? I don't want to end up buying tyres not meant for my vehicle
If you'd read what I originally posted I said: "A bit suspicious - two have the same picture against them".
i.e. the picture of the tyre in the listing above is NOT the one they're citing - in at least two cases.
It's a poor service if they can't even show the correct tyre tread pattern against each entry.
Potentially nothing wrong with the tyres of course.
I bought Dunlop Sport Maxx for mine - and whilst they were fine in normal driving their performance on snow was next to useless - worse tyres I've had in that respect. I suspect the circumferential bands on the tread pattern.
On previous cars I've had Toyo Proxes with a completely different tread pattern and they were much better on snow.

Ah, my bad. I didn't actually see that!

Michelin crossclimate plus, just had them fitted and really great for this time of year.
Have a read about them, and a couple of people i work with, can vouch for them.
