Banshee Ice studs question

[imgladihaveabanshee]

I live in wisconsin and winter is coming around and about time to stud the tires for ice racing, does anybody have a preference for studding tires. I heard that you can use snowmobile studs, is this true. Thanks, Mike

When you say snowmobile studs, do you mean ice screws or the inch long studs??

[imgladihaveabanshee]

when I say snowmobile studs i mean the ones that are about an inch long and are bolted through the tread.

I've seen them run on bike tires, but not on quads. On the bikes, they worked really good, the riders had the ability to climb hills when the ground was frozen. I don't see why you couldn't use them on quad tires, though. Just make sure you use the plates on each side to help hold the stud in place.

Hey i live in wisconsin also and Race studded oval quad. As far as studing tires if your looking for a practical stud unlike the banshee with sled studs youll need to get ice screws from your local parts dealer, they look like a sheetmetal screw. once you get the studs lemme know ill sen dyou sum pics of my tires i do up every year. if your looking to race you wil need to get some tires though!

I got my studs today, 1000 of them in a bag, how many do i use in each tire

[Foshezy]

Depends on the tire you have... Id say if you have a standard holeshot with X's... Put one in the middle of each X

[BlueDiablo]

Yeah right in the middle. Arent you suppose to put silicone on the screw before you send it in?
