When new, they'll be quite similar in the deep snow.
The Gislaved will be much better on the dry.
If the Gislaved is not studded, the WS50 will be better on the ice. They're might be a non-studdedable version of the Gislaved today, but I don't know of one.
The Blizzak will last one, perhaps two years tops.
Buying snow tires is a pain so when it was time to get new ones, I went from Gislaved to Nokian. Very similar tires.
I studded them this time. The Nokians have a slight edge in the dry vs the Gislaveds and seem similar in the snow but they are great on the ice as I studded them. Nokian Hakka2 is the tire.
