I did....had Diamaris summer 19's and used to switch to 17's Dunlop Grandtrek winter. Had to 'cos the Diamaris, as designed, can not be driven in even the lightest dusting. Dunlops were awesome and I pushed the rig in horrendous winter conditions in upstate VT and ME - highly rec. these tires.

Anyway, when the Diamaris needed replacing, I switched to Hankook Ventus A/S 19'S. I don't do a lot of the deep ski stuff anymore so A/S are fine for my needs. I was also tired of the twice a year swap over. Very happy so far.

No arm wrestle here...YMMV....do whatcha ya gotta do for your driving needs/conditions...but some of us have switched from winters to A/S.
