Those tires are narrower and shorter. I do not recommend that you use them.

Please explain more,, narrower would be good for winter time tho right? I've been told I don't want wider in the snow so they should be better for control?

The wider the tire, the better the bite on the snow. Personally, i would go with the correct tire size for the vehicle.
