Default Tires... anyone has good experience with sumitomo?

Sumitomo HTR as all season tires... What do you think? It's cheap, and has excellent rating, as good as summer tires... and has pretty good snow traction... unless the reviews are biased :/

I have some Yokohama ES100 now, but really doubt they will make it this winter.

The winter in Colorado (Denver) is very mild. Snow usually melt by the next days, so it will be very rare to drive in the snow unless we get 6 feet of snow like last winter storm. The ES100 would work around the winter I guess, but not those 3 or 4 days snow packed on the road.

All season tires will not match the traction of summer tires. If you're really concerned about snow driving then you should get some snow tires mounted on steelies.
