ok to put H-rated winter tires on a 2k?

I kno the oem rating for the max is V-rated. Im wondering if its safe to put H-rated tires on the max 225/50/17. I read somewhere that its not good to go under the oem rating but was wondering if it was different with winter tires. Pirelli 210 winter SnowSport tires.
Thanks
