Perfect. People who use studded tires every winter usually don't like to go back to just regular winter tires. Put me in that camp. Those who know the difference are usually out in all kinds of weather. Did I miss it in the video? Do you remove the studs with the same tool?
Back when most cars were rear wheel drive my dad had studded snow tires he put on each winter, had them pre mounted on wheels, legally you could only run certain months of the year and he put tubes of sand in the trunk and the car would go good on icy roads, but really noisy when dry out , then came along front wheel drive and all weather tires
Thanks for sharing that! I always love hearing about how they used to do it. I've also heard a bout sand bags in the trunk of real-wheel drives, increases traction 10 fold apparently! ☺
I'm in Texas, and the 3 days a year we get ice storms, I use 1/4" hex head wood screws. 10 minutes with a screw gun per tire. When there's no more black ice, 10 minutes to pull them out. I never drive faster than about 10 mph, and it works great.
I live in Colo. and spent a winter in Texas once. During an ice storm in Ft Worth, I had a guy in a Porcha 911 blow by me with his studded winter tires on. Why you might ask did a Texas driver spend money on studded tires for his Porcha? Well, just for this once in a lifetime opportunity to pass a Colo license plate on icy roads. It didn't end well for him. He spun a 360 right in front of me and then road the wall around a left had curve. He took the next exit to go lick his wounds.
@biggs8729 Haha! It's not like they magically create summer traction 😆 although snowy roads can make for unbelievably good traction when it gets real cold, especially if the vehicle has some weight to it. Like an 18-wheeler or a heavy tractor 🚜
We had them years ago they were studied snow tires and most states outlawed them and going down the road sometimes they came out and broke the windshield of the car behind you
I can see that happening, especially when driving at high speeds like you can over in the US. Around here the highest speed limit is 50mph. I've never heard about studs breaking windshields around here. That's not to say it has never happened of course.
I’ve used gripstuds a couple of years now. We get more ice than powder in Oklahoma. Combined with my Nitto Ridgegrapplers I’m pretty happy. We’ve talked about installing them on the tractor too.
Just insert the drill bit into the chuck at desired depth level so you can just drill away. You can mark the bit with a sharpie so you can see how far to put into the drill.
Thanks for this video! I’ve just installed the best grip 1913 I think they’re called on my ’80s Zetor. I guess you need to have some weight on the tractor though for studs to be usable instead of chains
Pure luck stumbling over this channel. Hunted for a comprehensive video about studding tires, last winter. So, now I'm fired up! I shall order some, and stud my workboots, and maybe even my ulltøffels. 10x!
@woodlandwrench yeah, but it's not like you're driving a thing on a highway. Leaving the studs on and occasionally driving on pavement around your house or business isn't going to damage anything. And you're probably not putting on 100 mi driving on pavement in the summer. And, I don't really see the studs wearing out.
Flott og interessant video. Skjønner pigger passer bra til dere med mye asfaltkjøring og høye hastigheter, men selv jeg blir fast med kjettinger, det passer mitt bruk med lave hastigheter og alt innenfor en liten radius på grusveier.👍
Litt i samme båt her med kjettinger. Har kun 6km med asfaltkjøring til skogsveien lengst unna hjemmet, pluss at 320 plogen er litt stor til JD6320'n min, og det er nokså bratt tidvis. Men når ny og større traktor skal kjøpes så blir det nok pigg etterpå🤞😎 Gleder meg til neste video mann😁
@@skravlesen 6320 er jo en veldig flott traktor 💪 6km er ikke galt, og uansett så kjører du vel ikke frem og tilbake dit hver dag hele vinteren 😄 Ny traktor ja, spennende! Er det en spesifik modell du skal ha? 💪
@@woodlandwrench Ja, vært veldig fornøyd med den. Begynner bare å bli litt gammel og er litt for liten til å drive noe ut over det å ordne på egen eiendom👍 Blir heldigvis lite kjøring frem og tilbake, bare ved mindre uhell😅 Er alltid spennende med nye maskiner, heller litt mot en Deutz TTV 630.

Spike tyres are the best for certain. However, except for the stipulated areas of central, north and east Hokkaido, it is a traffic offence to use spike tyres here in Japan since April 1st, 1991. Using spike tyres on non-snow covered roads even in the aforementioned regions is illegal. Studless winter tyres are however mandatory and in some regions (most of snow country) the use of chains is also required. As much as I would like to follow your advice and buy those studs and install them, doing so would incur a huge fine. The reason for the ban on spike tyres is because of the dust they caused when cars drove on roads devoid of snow in cities such as Sendai where heavy snowfall and periods of no snow occur during the winter and had become a huge social issue.
Thanks for the insight! Very interesting read. The ban on studded tires in Japan makes sense, especially with the dust issues you're talking about. Studless winter tires and chains sound like the way to go. Definitely not worth risking a fine or the headaches. Thanks for clearing that up! 😊
We have a similar situation in the US. Here in Ohio studs are only legal during the winter months. I heard a friend say once that he had to take off his studded tires because he was traveling to Michigan and they were illegal there. They worked great on my car and truck. I've thought about putting them on my tractor, but never did.
@fbs227 You could, but they won't be very secure. High likelihood of losing them. Though I guess if the previous studs were smaller, then you could put larger studs in the smaller hole, maybe.. 😅
I installed spikes on my 800cc acv the first winter I was moving snow with it, and for that purpose it is not good enough. The next winter i bought studs.
@ Haha, yes! I bought chains😂 Since it is so much snow in the area i live, there is no other option than chains on the atv. Anyway. Every winther i had problems when is was snowing and windy. The snow became so hard that my atv couldnt handle it. But, this summer i sold my atv, and bought a MF 135 and i also bought chains to it. It feels that nothing can stop me now🫣 Want to see more videos of the 165!

@@jimcurrier3922 It's is! For certain applications. Sometimes you need chains, but if you don't then studs are amazing to drive on. Thanks for the comment 😊
Hello, I learned a bit about tire studs or spikes. I may have seen you install some or at least your mention of doing so, but i never recall seeing a stud gun used or how it is used. Interesting tool. Here in the Pacific Northwest of the United States, studs are only allowed during certain set times of the year. Actually even some states don't allow use of studs at all. Something about wearing the asphalt or concrete faster and increased maintenance of the road surface. In our area, we have had studs in the past, but more snow than ice so the atuds don't seem worth the extra $s for the tires with them installed. We end up buying tires that do well in the snow and ice and have little problems in those conditions. Thank you for the video. I learned something new today.
Thanks for sharing this! I love reading about how other parts of the world do things and what the norm is. We have somewhat similar laws here, we're not allowed to drive on studs during summer. And the capital city, Oslo, I believe have a complete ban on them year-round. I'm glad the video was helpful for you! ☺
15 32nds of an inch is what that means. Which is if you divide 1 inch into 32 equal lengths one of those is a 32nd then you take 15 of those and that's how you get 15/32. In case you didn't know the math of that, now you know. It's a lot more difficult than mm and cm.
@@robertheinkel6225 I've heard this a few times. I think they should've be allowed during winter, at least on snowy roads where they won't damage the road.. But oh well, always check local regulations first 😊
@@woodlandwrench A road that is snowy one day may not be snowy several days later, or even the next day. I used to live in central Wisconsin and saw firsthand the damage from studded snow tires. Back then everyone had rear-wheel drive cars and only used snow tires in the winter. Our city spent many months widening and totally rebuilding the main street into a beautiful four-lane concrete street with parking on both sides. Within just a couple years, at every intersection you could see gouges where cars stopped and started. Eventually they turned into depressions that had to be repaired. And that's just one street in one city. With improved tires and the advent of front-wheel and all-wheel drive, people didn't miss studded tires.
We have a family tire shop in Canada, We always have a little cap full of light oil to dip the tip of the stud gun in every so often. It is easier on the gun and the studs will set to the right depth better.
Nice video! I'm using chains since i only drive on gravelroads at low speeds. I also use my tractor to do forestry during wintertime and studs is therefore not an option 😊 I have mounted the snowblower now, ready for the snowstorm 😀💪🚜💨
Agreed, in your situation I wouldn't even consider studs. That nice Valtra of yours with chains in the forest is probably a BEAST! 😍 Great to hear the blower is on! I like your style of preparing equipment and getting ready. Looking forward to your video about the coming snowstorm 😄🚜🌨️
@@woodlandwrench I guess it would be more than just one video. I really like the bad weather conditions and loves to clear the roads with the tractor. It's plain and simple therapy 😅
@@OffGridWild I agree! There's something about snow that just sits nice with me. A lot of people get depressed during winter, I think I'm the complete opposite!
@cliffmorgan31 There is a tax in most big Norwegian cities where the roads are salted. No tax where we have winter roads, aka roads where they do not use salt, so there's a layer of ice/hard- packed snow, like we have around where I live.
@ - Winter tires without studs have improved drastically in recent decades, so they really aren’t necessary unless sheet ice. I has been documented that on dry or just wet pavement studs actually increase stopping distance, so it is a double edged sword. Less safe or more safe?
@cliffmorgan31 You're definitely right that they can reduce traction on roads if there is no ice/snow. Especially true for asphalt, concrete, and other hard surfaces!
Thanks for sharing your experience. I have a stark contrasting experience, especially on the tractor. They provide 5x the grip vs without, both on snow and ice - and I've tried! One thing to keep in mind tho, is that the tractor weights around 6-7 tons, so the snow underneath the wheels get compacted a lot more than with a 1 ton car, or a 500kg ATV, which might be a factor in why they work so well.
@@woodlandwrench yer not gonna believe what i have to say haha. just a few minutes before i read your reply i was telling my neighbor how light my car is ((1997 saturn sl2 with twin cams)). my stand with the point you made. my saturn only was as much as a 1997 mazda miata. i appreciate your wisdom brother. im gonna sub. youre my kinda ppl

One thing to keep in mind tho, is that the tractor weights around 6-7 tons, so the snow underneath the wheels get compacted a lot more than with a 1 ton car, or a 500kg ATV, which might be a factor in why they work so well.
@@woodlandwrench yer not gonna believe what i have to say haha. just a few minutes before i read your reply i was telling my neighbor how light my car is ((1997 saturn sl2 with twin cams)).
my stand with the point you made. my saturn only was as much as a 1997 mazda miata. i appreciate your wisdom brother. im gonna sub. youre my kinda ppl
@@jeff_lee69 Haha, what a coincidence! Yeah, weight is probably a big factor. Thank you for the sub, I appreciate it!

@@woodlandwrench Neida, thirty seconds, så du har æren i behold.
@@eriktorp-olsen1706 Flaks! 😏

Back when most cars were rear wheel drive my dad had studded snow tires he put on each winter, had them pre mounted on wheels, legally you could only run certain months of the year and he put tubes of sand in the trunk and the car would go good on icy roads, but really noisy when dry out , then came along front wheel drive and all weather tires
