The reason is because your situation is very rare; the vast majority of people buying an expensive, powerful, RWD, convertible have no intention of driving it in inclement weather. The solution, as the others have mentioned, is to purchase a set of winter or all season tires. I don't imagine it will be hard to sell a set of brand new stock tires but I would try to work a deal with your dealer.
