heres a solid link on DIY tire studding.

You can also incorporate "wide rims" to make a bigger "footprint" on the snow covered ground.

if you want to take a chance and make some uninformed comment about these rims lateral strength you're moar than welcome to. I will troll the hell outta PB from then on. So........go ahead, MAKE MY DAY PUNK!! LoL WaT.

C'mon guys, get it together. Half of the comments on this thread look like they were made by a person with their foot in the grave.
Biking in the winter is a real possibility. Especially when you factor in the money you save by making-yer-own studded tires.

For what kind of riding? studded tires only help on ice.. I have been biking in the winter for years and tried store bought studded tires and have made my own.. I have ridden high pressure pizza cutters and low pressure 3.0's ..
the conditions change by the hr in snow riding and unless you plan on riding a lot of ice dont bother waisting your money..When we made them by hand it was because we young and had nothing better to do but sit around and f*ck with bike shit.. so if your stoke is high and you want to try them . I suggest you put on a bike vid and start punching screws into your rubber..

and if there are any other snow riding related questions bring it on! 19 years on a mountain bike in canada.. Not much i dont have an opinion on .. Key word OPINION
