If they work for you then more power to you, but I don't want you to miss out on a proper tire. It seems as though the decision has already been made, but if you look at any of the online independent testing it mimics my experience with tires.

Oh yea I have no doubt that summers are better than all seasons in the right conditions. I know grip will suffer (and thus I'll have slightly worse acceleration and longer braking distance as well) but as long as the car still feels fun to me, thats what matters. Fun and relatively safe lol.

I mean even with all weather or summer tire I wouldn't drive crazy in bad weather

Yea I'm tempted to just do that again since I've been through two winters with summer tires only. Just had to drive real carefully but its just too risky IMO to not have at least all-seasons. Plus my new wheels will be wider than stock, making them even worse in snow.
