You should get like for like, so if your car came with all-season tyres then that’s what they will replace, sadly, most manufacturers now fit summer tyres in the UK – probably because their head offices are in London…might be different if their office was in Braemar ( 20 miles from me, -23 C last year, our “mild” winter).
In life, it's not who you know that's important, it's how your wife found out.
