Looks like there is room for full-coverage fenders with that set-up. Although, I expect you'll want to put the Ralphs back on when the snow flies.
I now have a number of rides on Hetres (584x41) and they float along. What surprises me is their ability to deal with really poor condition pavement. They don't seem to be a fragile tire. Compass know their stuff.
