Are tyres classed as ‘winter’ with metal studs of any use on frosty/icy tarmac roads or intended more for packed snow/ice?
Considered putting them on my old mtb for the early morning commutes when the road sparkles but suspect they’re something of a gimmick?
I bought some years ago but only rode them once. They are for hard packed ice/snow, you will probably end up losing most of the spikes if just riding on lightly frosted tarmac.
