Yea that was the stuff I was trying to get at. I was too extreme with the words I said but all seasons are a compromise. It is important to state that everyone makes the best choice for their situation. It is also important to state that all seasons are not useful when it gets cold out, and winter tires will be better for snow and ice. Too many people honestly do not think that.

As for space, my apartment is 750 square feet and I store my extra set of wheels and tires in my bedroom. It really helps having an apartment on the ground floor with 2 steps up. I did this on the third floor with no elevators too, but I doubt I would want to do it if I was living in a real apartment complex. And that is just for my BRZ, I have a couple sets of wheels for my Yaris that are living in my parents house 1200 some odd miles away. I'm tempted to get a 3rd set of wheels for the BRZ for daily driving, just the absolute lightest wheels and tires I can find, but we'll see.

I also think we need to make sure people get how amazing the BRZ is in the snow and ice with proper winter tires. I was shocked by how amazingly solid it was even without treated roads.I think I slipped once about a foot and that was it for an entire winter with several freak unannounced blizzards.
