Exactly.
Also those factory inserted studs will sit as well as mine, are made from the same materials as mine, and weigh the same.
The only difference is that I can screw mine in and out with a special tool, and a screw driver. A very expensive convience. But I would probably destroy my tyres if I attempted a more DIY approach.
Its tempting to wack some in some winter MTB shoes. I hate the shock each time you put a foot down. Only to realise your feet have a 10th of the traction your tyres do.
