You're paying for the wear on the tires- so if you don't mind giving up that by wearing out your own tires then you could do that. From my experience "All-season" tires do not mean tires which perform well in all seasons, rather its a compromise meaning tires which do not perform poorly in all seasons. No matter where you live (unless it never gets cold) IMO, winter tires are a good bet. They perform better on cold wet pavement than summer or all season tires- they're not just for snow! Assuming your next car has the same size tires (not too many do) then you can just use your winter tires on your next car and wear out the Michelins that you paid for in your lease. Otherwise, you could sell your snows privately to someone who can use them (like people here for example)
