Had Chinese M+S last year and that was an absolute nightmare. I already have a dedicated summer performance tire set up, it would be great to get both all weather and winters so I don't kill the treadwear on either summers or winters, but space is scarce.

Also trying to figure out which all weather is the best for a 2015 Civic. Being fwd, I got around with just Primacy MXM4s last year - even in Surrey. My 16 y/o brother has the Civic now, so I want him to be safe so it has to be snowflake rated, but not necessarily dedicated winters. I don't want to run two sets of wheels for the Civic too.

TIA
For the E46 since you have summers, why not go winters? For space issues, you can probably do the tire storage at Kal or Fountain where they keep the tire for you and swap it seasonally? Kal's Tire Lodge

For the Civic, I hear the Michelin CrossClimate (Costco pricing is good, and $110 Costco cash card at the moment) is a pretty good all-weather, as well as the Toyo Celsius. As always, the WRG's are there as a benchmark.
