Hold on, I need to recap:

- You asked about whether the tires were any good for your trip.
- You were told "nope" by multiple posters.
- You went anyway.
- Realized it was a bad move.
- Paid a "mechanic" to put chains on your car.
- Severed a brake line.
- Got a rental car.
- Need new brake line and rim...and snow tires.

What did we learn here, snow tires would have been far cheaper than that adventure.
