I read that part but I'm still confused. If I purchase the car and winter comes around, do I have to go and purchase new tires for winter???

YES , the tyres that come with the SS are for sunny days only , don't work in the snow ( winter usa )

Basically if you live in the sun belt you could get away with them all year round (Florida, So-Cal, New Mexico, Arizona etc) but other wise you'd need winter tyres or simply fit the car with all weather tyres if the snow isn't so bad.

Its why American cars pretty much went front wheel drive over the years because it is more stable in icy/snow conditions. Easier for odinary drivers to control the car.

Merc/BMW/Cadillac offer AWD versions of their sedans (C/E/S Class, 3/5/7 series, ATS/CTS/XTS) in the the US market because of the varied road conditions.
