They are lousy in summer AND winter! lol I think I will put mine on next month though. Usually most Germs leave them on from the end of Nov until mid April.

Are you sure about that? I thought Austria had that law, but Germany only required you to have snow rated tires (M+S) if you're driving on snow/ice. As in, you have to have proper tires suitable for your current driving conditions. Your insurance company may have their own requirements as well, but probably won't pay out if you have an accident in the snow and don't have the proper tires.
