Hi,

I'd have concerns about the directional stability of that wide a front tire, especially in ice and snow. It's going to have a larger contact patch, reducing the weight/in.². This means the tires will have a reduced bite and want to float resulting in gross understeer. Too much? I don't know without having experienced it, but certainly more than a narrower tire. But with Winter Tires, narrower is usually better...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
