My snow belt-dwelling in-laws had a setup with their tire shop. They paid the shop to store whichever sets of tires were not in use: renting space basically. They'd show up when the season changed, & the dealer took care of the swap.

FWD cars - no fancy 4WD - never had a problem in the snow.

There was a honkin' big gas heater hung from the ceiling in their garage. Got the cars toasty before heading off to work.

I never put snow tires on our JGC and it's just fine in any amount of snow that's below the hood

Ground clearance and proper 4WD is king when it comes to (real) snow. :rockon:
