You think its better to just get new rims then to just get all season tires?

This year I have Continental all-seasons on my spare rims (black instead of red). definitely more grip. PSS tires under 55 degrees and wet are almost useless if you want to drive it in anything but econo mode on side streets.
If you admit that you will probably buy another set of tires within the lifetime/ownership of the car then get another set of rims and all-seasons. Except the rim cost, it's about the same cost in the long run and much better/safer for winter.
