Nokian or stay home! If you are desperate, mount the Goodyears and trade them back after the trip to get real tires.
Do you want SNOW tires or do you want WINTER tires? They aren't necessarily the same. What is the mix of deep snow vs ice vs dry pavement in your regular driving. The tires you have listed seem to be studdable traction tires with less sophisticated tread compounds that, in my experience are less capable on ice and mixed conditions without the studs. Relative HAD Evolutions-not happy with braking and wear-replaced after one "not so winter" winter. OK on gravel if that's what you need. Many friends running WR Nokians on a variety of rigs with high praise during mixed conditions all year.
Mis-spelling Hakkapeliitta since 1984
