There are only 2 all seasons that are good in winter.

1) Nokian WRG3. However, not really 'sports car' material, softish sidewall, and biggest tire is 19" (and a 255 at that).

2) Continental ExtremeContact DWS-06. New version and much, much better than the DWS it replaces. A tire that will hardly leave you stranded in the snow, decent response, and excellent for cold weather, where summer tires are usually never recommended near or below freezing temps.

If you were to get an all season, the DWS06 will not disappoint. Then, when it gets warm enough, swap them out for the Summers that came on the car.

But nothing beats dedicated snows on another set of wheels.
