SlammedM3 gave me a site and the difference is less than an inch in diameter, they are narrower and i figure that would be better in the snow.
Thanks

Smaller than technically recommended up front. It may feel like too little tire up front from a handling perspective, and will not protect the wheel as well, but the skinny factor does help in snow. So that's a definite maybe Can't give it the official thumbs up, but seems like it could be workable,
