so it comes down to folks cheaping out
Absolutely correct. 18" snow tires are cheaper than getting 20". Why would I get a nice set of 20" wheels and rubber to beat up in the winter?

But also I take into account that the ride quality is better on 18" snow tires than 20"s. Especially in these pothole infested winter cities.

Everyone has reasons for different applications.
