Default Considering Blizzak's for my stock wheels. Will only use if/when it snows.

Certainly no need for winters 99% of the time around here. But if it snows, there's no way I'll venture out on my S-03's.

Yes, Michelin Alpins...Stock tires are not very good in real cold weather and snow.

Default All-seasons during the winter for me

I have a second vehicle with aggressive tires, 4wd & chains if it gets really messy, or I go skiing.

The all-seasons are a bit stickier in cold weather and have some snow-abilities. Mostly for when it snows when I'm at work. Of course, it never really snows in Seattle.
