If I was only driving in the UK, I'd agree. But both my GF and I have family in Italy and we drove down there (via a ski break in the Alps) over Christmas and NY. I tend to do one ski trip to the Alps by car most years, so it was a no-brainer for me to get a set of winter tyres (the law requires you to either have chains or winter tyres in nearly all the Alpine countries and also in the hillier bits of central Italy).
