Snow tires or studded tires?

Snow tires or studded tires?

I live in Arnold, California where the roads are snowy and icy from Dec to April. What's better for safe driving (Honda Pilot front wheel drive), aggressive snow tires or metal-studded tires?

Studs arent necessarily better for deep snow, but they usually are for ice. They do tear up the roads, though. I have used several different snow tires in the past, and I am most impressed by the unstudded Nordman model from the Swedish brand Nokian. I have driven them through some pretty wild snow in upstate new york.

I love my studded tires. I have put them on for two seasons and never slip. Studded for sure.

snow tires

studed tires are just snow tires that have had metal cleats inserted into the tred, so the studed tires are a step up in traction

Either................

Winter tires have special rubber compounds designed to improve traction, handling and braking in all cold weather conditions, not just ice and snow.

Winter Tires are designed to deliver safety and control in snow, ice, and cold weather conditions.

The superior traction that winter tires deliver can be as much as a 25 to 50 percent increase.
