Depends on your driving requirements. There is still 3 months+ of winter left, a set of winter tires lasts me about 4 years. That's $120 a year. Small insurance if you get stuck in the shizz riding on all seasons. With 1/2 my family in Windsor and my 2 oldest kids in Emsdale, I'd rather not chance it. Half my highway driving is before the plows are out and a 100km round trip commute daily.

Besides, it saves your summer rims from pitting, and you had to put --something-- on the steelies.
TEAM PITA: Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
