Ask yourself this question
1. How much do you drive during winter months
2. Will this be a daily driver or a weekend warrior/fun car
3. How badly does it snow where you live and do u have to be at work come rain or shine or can you wait till the roads r plowed to get to work
4. Do you have an alternate vehicle that you can use when its snowing bad. Say your significant others SUV or something.
5. Do you like to do some fun things in the snow or hit the mountains or wanna do some spirited driving in the cold and take ur car for a spin

If this M4 is gonna be your DD and you need to use in during winter come rain or snow and dont have an alternate vehicle when its snowing hard, go with the winters. Like others said, you can store them at the dealership or tire shop for a paltry sum.

If you feel like you can manage these things, go with AS. The main advantage AS gives u over the winters is the flexibility. That does come with some compromises. You dont have to worry about when to swap your tires between summer and winter, dont have to wait for an appointment at ur dealership and waste time. Can still drive ur car when temps are above 50F without worrying about excessive wear on ur winters and making it more sticky.

So choose the tire that best suits your needs.
