How many here run all season tires year-round?

I'm probably going to bring my car out here starting this summer. I have dedicated summer and winter wheels now, but I don't think I'll have room to store a set of wheels and I don't really plan on doing that much fierce corner carving in the city. Will all seasons get me through a Chicago winter ok?

Yup. Two days of snow this year. My problem is...

my snow tires won't wear out. The damn things are 5 years old and there is still lots of tread depth. I can't sell them because nobody wants tall skinny rolling stock any more. So I'll keep them. When the tires finally wear out, I'll throw the wheels away.
