Tire Studs to improve your traction. A lot of winter tires don't have studs in them because their grip is meant to be good on the ice & snow without them.

 

Tire Studs


Some winter tires have studs - specialized rubber compounds or traction enhancers that are moulded right into the tire. The use of studded tires is usually restricted to winter months.

In Canada the law states if you are studding snow tires on the front axle, studded tires must also be placed on the rear axle.

This measure is to prevent the rear end of the vehicle from breaking loose under heavy cornering and breaking.

Most provinces have time regulations as to when studded tires are allowed on the roads. Ask about the regulations in your area when installing studded tires.
