Nifty. You can have your burnouts and your winter traction too: [![](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/2/7/2776f7864718dfb20d0799285917d30edc053ccd.jpeg "Nokian Tyres & future technology - The world's first non-studded winter tyre with studs") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNXL2EEscuE) > The idea of the combined non-studded and studded tyre is that the driver can make the switch when the conditions clearly change. Studs are not used on dry roads and stable winter conditions, but they can be activated in icy weather for extreme safety.

I am pretty sure thousands of people have thought of this but can they actually produce them? It would be great if they came out automatically when ABS/traction control is being used. ---

I’d like to see how they deploy, especially when the tire is covered in snow and coated in ice. ---

yea he spelt it wrong…but either way it is in no way original english…its just how they spell it over the pond…kind of like honour/honor expect Canada uses the british spellings for those but not for tyre - - - Updated - - - either way…these seem kind of cool…but i can imagine a lot of things going wrong with them…i think for most people who live in shitty enough places that they need to use studded tires…then can just switch them on for winter
