I'm gonna give em a go.

Oh, right, I wouldn't know what that's like.

All seasons are "no seasons." Seems a little odd to buy a 30-40K sports car and then skimp on arguably the most important performance part of the car.

But it makes sense to purchase sticky summer tires for and spend 90%of your mileage spinning because its too cold or wet for them to grip?. I don't disagree with the allseason statement but climate conditions do play a important role whem it comes to tire choices. Why do people run winter wheels and tires?

I wasn't implying to buy summer times and just leave them on all year. Rather, I was saying that if I'm going to spend this kind of money on a performance car, I'm gonna buy appropriate tires for the conditions, which means having winter and summer tires.

Not that I could give a train's caboose what any of you do with your car, but it is a suggestion thread.
