Before buying studdable winter tires: molded stud holes
Studdable winter tires are winter tires with stud holes molded into the tread, ready for a tire shop to insert metal studs. A studded tire grips glare ice and hard-packed snow better than a studless tire, because the stud tips break into the ice surface.
Choosing factory-studded or studdable tires
Winter tires with "Studded" in the product name arrive with studs installed by the tire manufacturer and are ready to mount. Studdable tires without that marking arrive with empty stud holes, ready for a tire shop to insert studs, or to run unstudded.
Planning stud installation when buying studdable tires
Studdable winter tires bought unstudded need studs installed while new, before the tires are driven, because driving fills the stud holes with grit and wears the hole edges so studs no longer seat. Buyers who order studdable tires book a tire shop to stud them before mounting.
Studded tire laws to check before buying
Studded tire rules vary by state. Washington and Oregon allow studded tires from November 1 to March 31; Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin ban studded tires on most passenger vehicles. Check the studded tire season in your state before studding studdable tires.
Buying studdable tires to run without studs
Studdable winter tires can run without studs as winter tires with the 3PMSF (Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake) symbol. Unstudded studdable tires give less ice grip than dedicated studless winter tires, whose compounds and siping are designed to grip ice without studs.
Buying factory-studded tires when no stud shop is nearby
Factory-studded tires are the purchase for drivers with no nearby tire shop that installs studs, because the studs arrive seated by the manufacturer and the tires mount like any winter tire. Studdable tires suit buyers with a local stud shop, or buyers who want the option to run the set unstudded.
Road noise and pavement trade-offs before buying studs
Studded tires make more road noise and give less grip on dry and wet pavement than studless tires. Studded tires also wear pavement, which is the reason for state stud seasons and bans. Studdable tires suit drivers on rural, icy and unplowed roads in states that allow studs.
