Default Tires for ap1 wheels?

I have an 02. I run ap2 v3 wheels and good max performance summer tires in the warm months, (Bridgestone S-04).
I store car in winter (snow months).
I'm considering new tires for my stock ap1 wheels for use during the wet and chilly shoulder seasons (early spring and late fall). They will not see snow.
I guess I am looking for a tire that has good performance in the wet and also most importantly in the cold - meaning below freezing. Not concerned about snow. The car will not see snow.
I'm also thinking that I will store the car sitting on the ap1 wheels and tires so I would like something not prone to flat spots after 4-5 months of storage.

Suggestions?

Sounds like your S04's would be fine if you drove them cautiously.

I guess you could buy some cheap all seasons for the AP1 wheels, I suppose.

We're talking using them for about like...2 weeks of driving conditions per year?

Any crap tyre can be used for storage. I've used donuts, dead track tyres, etc.

Yea. I should probably just use the old S02s that are on there now for storage only and make due with the S04s otherwise.
