You can 'get by' with all-seasons, if you take it extra-easy. However, once you've been through a winter with dedicated snows, you won't ever go back. You also don't wreck your stock wheels.
Also, with the profusion of AWD making drivers think (very very wrongly) they can drive the same in snow as in dry, it's valuable to have a little extra equipment.
The cost of a dedicated set is usually less than the cost of edging into a guard rail or mailbox. Note you need at least 16" set to clear the brakes.
Did they have stock all-seasons on Aeros? It snowed before my changeover last year and on the summers, I spent more time going sideways than anything. It's fun trying to drive looking out the side windows!
