Fitting winter tyres to Freelander 2

I own a Land Rover Freelander 2 and want a new set of winter tyres. I've seen an advert for Bridgestone A001 Weather Control tyres, what are your thoughts on these? Do you have a particular winter tyre you would recommend ?

A001s are all-weather tyres. I haven't tried them. I believe the best all weather tyres to be Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons. But you will find the most comparative information at www.tyrereviews.co.uk
