For answering the question, yes i have a winter setup with oem rims. (live in Norway so good winter tires are important!)
^True. Winter tires aren't just for snow either. The winter rubber provides far superior grip in the dry and wet in and around freezing temps vs. summer rubber. Summer rubber is dangerous in cold temps, and of course in the snow it doesn't work at all. It'll hold on to snow in the treads and you may as well be driving with slicks.
