I don't know what your weather is like there, but here in Ontario I would never use an all-season tire. I have summer tires with a good rain tread and I have snow tires. Most people here use all-seasons and I think they are nuts. You get year-round non-optimal grip. Next time, buy a set of summers and a set of winters (it doens't cost more, since you wear them each half as fast). Then you can make sure that your summers are good FE-friendly tires.
