First off, you are going with a much taller tire which means that your speedometer will be out. More importantly, you are going with a wider tire, when you should be looking at a narrower tire for winter driving. My last OBW had 195's, and she was unstoppable in the snow. My present OBW has 225's, and unfortunately I let myself be talked into staying with the same 225 size for my winter tires. I can not achieve anywhere near the same speeds in snow with the new car, as I could with the old one. The much wider 225's ride up on top of the snow and aquaplane at a much lower speed. My advice would be to stay with your 195, or look at a 185. To prove my point, check out the width of the winter snow tires that the rallye cars use. They are super narrow, and yes, studded.

thats exactly what i was looking to hear....i always though narrower is better for snow so that they cut through it.....but these suckers are studded and it was a good deal....however i think im gonna keep looking
