Planning a trip next month down the I-5 from BC to CA and there may be snow on the pass between OR and CA. I picked up a set of four good used BF Goodrich All-Terrain 8.5x27R14 tires as part of another deal and put these on my '87 Westie. The handling is fine but the road noise is a good deal more than I like. Would it be safe to use a pair of my previous 195/70R14s on the front and leave the All-Terrains on the back? I'm no tire expert and am not really sure about the difference between these tires. Thanks, Rick |
