Winter tires fall into one of three categories, which are studded, studless and studable. Studded tires come with metal pieces that are designed to dig through ice and snow. The downside of studded tires is that if there is not any snow or ice on the road, then they can do serious damage to the road. That is why they have been banned in many states. Studless tires are preferred by many drivers. They have rubber compounding that is designed to withstand both cold temperatures and icy, snowy roads.
Studdable tires are an option for drivers who want the option of adding the metal pieces. They do not come with studs, but they have holes that allow you to add them. However, you can still get great traction even if you do not add the studs to the tires.
