All season tires on RS???

Hey does anyone know anything about getting all season tires for the rs? I see most of the camaros, like 99%, i see have the 20 inch rims and rs package. I am still debating the rs or just the 19 inch tires and a spoiler and halo lights on the lt because the 20 inch wheels only seem to come in summer tires. why would they do that for the v6? who buys a v6 and parks it for the winter? its not a drag race car that you only pull out for summer. and unless you live in hawaii or california all season tires are a must. Do they do all season tires for the 20 inch rs wheels? they'd be stupid not to. And does anybody know how summer tires handle snow and 18 miles of gravel a day? lol.

There is not a GM option but you can get all season 20's aftermarket, there are options available. I plan to use up my stock tires before it gets cold, we don't have bad winters here but probably still stick some all seasons on to be safe. For future reference there is also and wheel/tire section.

I'm planning on picking up some Yokohama Parada Spec-X all season tires. You can get them for just over $900 from Discount Tire.

According to Pirellii, the summer tires have diminished traction below 46 degrees. I believe it stated 10% less. The colder the worse off.
