Can I get all weather tyres fitted on my new car instead of what the manufacturer puts on?

When I order a new car for Spring 2018 I would like it on all season tyres rather than what the manufacturer is fitting at the time. What would be the best approach to achieve this?

You'll have to do a deal, but the car will come from the factory with whatever tyres the factory fits. You can't specify all season tyres except on a Renault Captur, a Peugeot 2008 with Grip Control, a Peugeot 3008 with Grip Control or a FIAT Panda or 500L Trekking. Anything else, the dealer (or you) will have to try to re-sell the tyres the car came on. Probably cheaper to simply get the all weather tyres fitted yourself and try to sell the standard tyres on eBay.
