Many people get in trouble because of this logic. Winter tires have different compound than summer performance tires.
Driving on summer tires in dry freezing winter gives you false sense of security. The summer tires get hard and feel like you're driving on hockey pucks. Not advisable.

If you plan to drive your Z through next winter as well, you might as well get winter tires. Although I understand it's tempting to jus get through those couple of months.
