the best boot is the one that fits my foot comfortably.  this could be a 700 dollar race boot, or some cheap tag sale things.  everyones foot is different, so everyones favorite boot is different.

ive only owned one boot so i cant tell you about full tilts or spks

but i can tell you that i bought my 07/08 dallbello krypton rampages at a sale and i LOVE them..plus you can save 10-15% on your car insurance by switching to Gieco.

its all preference man. I like my Tilts over my Rampages for many reasons:
1) weight - Full Tilts are light as hell
2) Comfort - Tilts are fully moldable
3) $$$ - they cost me about half as much
4) customizable - you can change every piece on them to fit colors, stiffness, etc.
5) easy - I think they are easier to put on too
6) ninja - they make me feel like a ninja

but yeah anyways, all up to your preference. Try on a bunch and whatever feels right for the price. I lucked out with my FT cause I bought them online without ever trying on a pair in my life

i love my spk's, and i have a wide foot and my friend loves his ft's and he has a skinny foot. it's just if they feel comfortable on ur feet, thats all.

full tilts. i have hot doggers and theyre perfect. you wouldnt think a low volume boot like that would be so warm. theyre incredibly light. and they get you laid.

you need to try on the boots and make a decision from there, its useless for us to tell you which ones we like when you are the one that is going to need to wear them, just because we love a certian boot because if the fit/features does not mean you will, my advice is get yourself into your local ski shop and get some boots on your feet, then make a decision from there

I have the head MOJOs and there a great boot.They take a beating, and are always warm and comfy. I think they may be alittle on the heavy side though.
