Here's what I would do:
Junk your stock tires, but save the wheels. If you have already done this, then hang onto the tires. Buy a set of Nitto Neo-Gens or Invos (or Falken Azenis) tires and put them on some Volk TE-37 wheels (or whatever you like. I think the Volks look good and their track record is impeccable. But they are expensive). That will be your lightweight, sticky summer combo. Then mount a set of Bridgestone Blizzack tires onto your stock wheels. They are beefy and will take winter abuse well. The Blizzack is the snow tire standard. And buy everything from the Tire Rack. You will not find better service anywhere else.
