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! ☺
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.
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!
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? 💪

@@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 😊
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.

@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.. 😅
@@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.
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.
Just make sure that you aren't in Southern Ontario... Studded tires are illegal here. Good luck though! Studded tires are a lifesaver if you're in a situation where they're needed
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! ☺

Tusen takk for hyggelig kommentar! Veldig morro å høre 😁 Ja 165'en tror jeg er favoritten til både meg og mange som ser på! Måtte ut med den i et redningsoppdrag i dag! For et styr denne dagen har vært! 😂 Kommer en video om dette etterhvert, tror den blir interessant 😅😅
@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!
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!
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.
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
