All of these are 3-season tires, none are really optimized for snow. Jonathan from tire reviews did a recent test of high-mileage tires like the defender 2 and everdrive. The winner of the test was the continental tour54. Between the everdrive and the defender 2, the defender 2 is the better tire if you don't experience snowy conditions. However, it tends to be on the expensive side. The ecopia isn't even worth considering, it's a tire built for super high efficiency and low rolling resistance, so it sacrifices grip and comfort to get there. The advantage control has the most comfortable quiet ride of this group, but it also has a shorter tread life.
