More and more drivers are choosing Blizzaks or similar tires, but there are still a lot of studded tires sold every fall.

I have two sets of tires, studded and summer, for each vehicle.

When I lived in Fairbanks, there was very little ice “in the old days” and I thought studs were silly. On the KP I rely on studded tires in winter.
