There aren't any. All season tires don't perform optimally in any season. They're all made from too hard of a compound to grip well in cold weather, even in the dry. And they have too low of a void ratio to clear snow well at low speeds.

Independent tests have been done where a FWD car with winter tires accelerated and braked better on packed snow than an AWD car with all-seasons. That's how much difference there is, in some cases.
