I have finally managed to help my daughter's partner swop wheels/tyres today on her 2019 Leon Cupra, her winter tyres bought back in October 2019 are Goodyear Ultra Grip Performance Gen 1 225/40 R18 92V XL. I live in Scotland and swopped wheels/tyres at the end of October, when the weather was a bit warmer, warm enough to clean fully dry and polish the removed summer wheels/tyres - today was only 4C and misty so not so good for doing that job!

Edit:- only problem I found when driving home in my wife's 2015 VW Polo 1.2TSI 110PS with its Michelin Alpin A4's was too much salt on the roads so easy to lose traction when moving off from a giveway!
