Thanks. So my other question related to this is: I'm going on a road trip at the end of this month. 1100 miles each way to my destination and back. There is a possibility that I may driving through a winter storm or a snowy area, so what would be best for both the snow and traveling over long distances? Would those tires you mentioned still be good choices?
