Performance winters have softer compound compared to all season tires which allow them to maintain their grip in cooler temperatures.

however, their tread patter is still relatively shallow, and designed for more "dry cold" grip rather than snow/ice grip.

so as long as you are driving in conditions where there are not heavy snow, and just cold weather, performance winters are fine.

If you want a more versatile tire, go for a studless ice/snow
