Thanks Tobeit, but I don't want to switch between tires. We get snow about twice a year and it's light snow. Once in 3 years we get a hard snow fall.

Kazz, the pavement you have there, are they concrete or tar road? Thanks.
No problem - it's expensive to switch...I know from my own experience. Especially if you have more than 1 car and don't keep the cars for too long. I often sold my cars before any of the summer/winter combo's I had was worn out.

Just keep in mind that all-season rated tires are really not made for the winter - it's not just snow, its icy pavements and just the low temperature. The all season is a compromise and they do loose flexibility and grip at low temperatures even on dry roads while winter tires are mixed for that low temp (they "melt" in the summer heat). So, keep it calm in the winter.
