Studded Tires Evaluated by Tennessee Expert
Knoxville professor E A Whitehurst reports on 1967 winter skid tests showing studded tires on rear wheels cut ice braking by 19 to 13 percent while four studded wheels cut by 31 to 17 percent. Rear chains cut ice braking by 50 percent, with chains providing over seven times the pulling of regular tires. Conventional snow tires offered no ice advantage. Slow speeds on slippery pavements remain essential.
