      it would definitely puncture the tube at the first impact if it survives installation

      No, these will pop your innertube almost immediately when you go over a bump. As soon as the tire gets compressed, the metal rivet will push against the metal rim, and pop your tube. Either get snow tires, or go tubeless.

      Omg trying to get those screws to start while watching them wander around the knob you’re working on times 100+.

      This would take hours if you didn’t start screaming and accidently ruin the tire in a fit of rage after ruining the 10th+ knob in a row.

      Then, like the other comments, the first bump you hit. Right into the tire. I bet if you bumbed into something good enough, the tire would split along a run of the studs.

      We used to make our own studded tires in college.

      Those will work. Predrill a pilot hole for each stud. Then we used rubber cement to add a cut tube to the inner circumference of the tire to prevent contact with the inner tube.

      It’s a lot of work and the functioned ok at best.

      I would recommend buying a Nokian studded tire if you can afford it, those worked much better and their tread pattern is designed to clear snow and slush quite effectively.

      Do this if you want to diy: https://youtu.be/iNSr0sHheG0

      You need dremel, drill for it and some depth stop. Schwalbe studs and tool and slow glue. Haven’t done tires like this but added studs to some shoes. Test right depth and adjust your stop, it’s very important

      I mean, a proper studded tire will work a lot better, but it is a $3 tire, if you can get the studs super cheap there isn’t lot to lose.

      I still vote for a proper studded tire.
