2019 Lexus GS — dedicated winter tires or modern all-weather tires?

MarketDIYer623Community StarterSep 4, 20262019 Lexus GS 350Raleigh
2019 Lexus GS 350, about 43,000 miles. Most roads are plowed quickly, but there are cold wet days, slush and a handful of serious storms. For a daily driver, where is the line where dedicated winters become worth storing? I would rather test this logically than replace parts. What would you check next?

This is a climate question as much as a tire question. In Raleigh, dedicated winters on the 2019 Lexus GS paid off more than I expected on ice, even on plowed roads. Then you'll know the next fork. This is from a 2019 Lexus GS in Raleigh with 43,000 miles. Take it or leave it — that's what I'd do. Video is ugly but it shows the hesitation.
