Winter tyres arent just for driving in snow.
They are better than summer tyres (which is what most cars in the UK drive on) in cold weather, anything from 5degrees and lower due to the softer compound.
They are also very good at clearing standing water, something that we have an abundance of at present.
They are better in snow/ slush conditions.
The cost argument isnt really an argument at all..... when you have the winter tyres on you arent using your summer tyres and vice versa so you wont be replacing either set as often as if you had only the one set.
