Huh? Why not? A FWD car with studded tires is unstoppable in the winter.


THIS^^^^

But OP should have bought option #3: General Altimax Arctic.


BTDT!

I kind of wish I got my current set studded

Fine if during the winter, the ground stays with packed snow/ice on top. Once it melts, the benefit of studded snows becomes its disadvantages.

Preferably, you should get them studded at the factory, ie Nokians, Gislaved, etc. so you have the benefits of the unique stud technology designed for that tire, vs having generic studs installed at the installer.
