Agree. Winter tires are clearly superior but the snow generally melts off the roads so fast here it's not really worth it. On my previous car I finally settled in on Nokian Rotiiva AT's which are an "all weather" tire, aka softer than an all season but tread like a regular AT tire. Did pretty good on all Front Range conditions, and I never had to switch em out. Plus XL rated was nice for towing. Trying to decide now if I should buy another set of Rotiivas to replace the Toyo Open Country H/T's or go with something else.Denver winters really aren't that bad.
