We've left these on all year and found no issues MPG etc all stayed same. So in recent weather we've been driving around with no problems whilst other 4x4's slide around. So I can't see any draw back to winter tyres, though about getting a different set of wheels to swap between winter and summer tyres but doesn't seem worthwhile...

Yes. I've been saying this for some years now.
Also you have the advantage of better off road performance for the rest of the year as well. (The reason I got mine originally.)
