Screw in Tire Studs

[TGeorge]

Thoughts / experiences with screw in carbide traction studs? I'm considering a 2nd set of wheels and tires for winter. Has anybody tried studs? Thanks!

I did mine, works well, have not driven much on them or removed them yet. You should be able to remove them every season, I bet you could stud them at least 5-6 times before you run out of space.

Any particular flavor of stud? 'bout how many are required for a 2 axle (4 wheels) M1078? Thanks Tobin

I did a pattern, about 120 studs per tyre, look up you local laws, laws in my state was no more than 3% of tire surface area could be studded otherwise it was defined as a “metal tyre”. I used the igrip studs 15mm shouldered studs PN: SS-151000
