Not saying I know the solution, intuition tells me it probably has already been proposed and shelved for later consideration in a more favorable economic (profitable) time.

Another alternative to studded tires are chains. But then again theres the problem of getting them on and off. Also the danger of slinging them off while driving down the road.

I never bought them because they're seasonal, and they're very loud on the open road.
Missunderstood stomps post and thought you ment to replace the rubber all togather.

Studs only work on Ice or hardly packed snow it's got no function at all for anything else. It's the tire itself that create the friction on snow.

In europe there's two groups, European winter tires and Scandinavian winter tires.

Nokian and Gislaved are the tires that take the top marking in tests every year for scandinavian winter tires, Nokian with studed and Gislaved with friction tires (once again not to confuse with "All season" they are not the same type of tire )

Nokian studed tires arn't that loud, there's been alot of development in the last 10 years, my Nokian Hakka 7 arn't much louder then friction tires even on asphalt, sure they do produce more noise but todays modern studed tires produce only around 20% of the noise that studed tires used to

All season tires here are very rare, the Swedish Transport Administration reccomend not using All season tires on our roads because of their poor performace on snow and ice in low temps. Studed tires are reccomended, Swedish studies show that studed tires would have saved about 50% of those that ware killed in accidents that ware caused by ice compared to friction tries.

Lol, tire chains ...



Lol, I have chased threads on steel, aluminum, copper, brass, titanium & even plastic. But , I've never chased threads on rubber.

Allthough much faster than this video ...

It sure is a tired old joke that's been around for a fair while but in certain circles it's one we may never tire of
completely..

See the flat bit? That's where the spikes can come out from, rest of the time the tire is safe on the outside
