Lots of people think "oh it's fine, I can control the car ok" but then if they get convinced to try real winter tires they realize just how much better they are.
This is why I have 3 sets of tires; summer, winter, track!  |
I've got a set of all season tires - General G-Max AS-05. Had them for over 2 years now and have experienced no issue or extremely little change in feel from season to season. Summers here get to 37C+ and winters as low as -20C or worse at times. I don't drive in the snow as I have a backup car for that. But the cold temperatures never gave me any scares and the tires have ran flawlessly.
