I drove home in the noreaster on my RWD 335 with the Goodyear summers. There was a few inch of slush and snow on the road and the car was surprisingly competent.
With that said, if I had to make any emergency maneuvers or stop short or tackle any incline from a standstill, it would have been disasterous.
You CAN drive on anything, but having the right equipment is going to help. Tirerack did some great comparisons between stopping distances on all seasons vs snow tires that should convince you pretty quickly why snow tires are important even if All seasons are "good enough"
