Snow tires will suck in spring summer and fall. Get a good all season tire and either don't drive it when it snows or get a set of blizzaks on steel wheels (you can go 16" on these even if you have the 17" sport wheels - lot cheaper) and just use them during the worst winter months.

Yeah I think the best compromise is an all-season, good summer tires suck in winter and something like a Blizzak isn't really meant for summer.
 
If you don't want to buy another set of tires and rims, keep the all-seasons and throw some weight in the trunk. I did OK doing that and when we would get real heavy snow or ice either my wife or I would call in to work and the other would drive her 4WD Outlander.
