i would put a good solid row of studs in the middle of the tire... and then starts to angle them as you move towards the outside of the tire... only putting 2 on the outside treads... i was gonna do mine... got lazy... they will be done so i can ride this weekend tho... ill try to get a pic of them up... maybe tomorrow.

sorry.. i shoulda been more specific... angle them across the tread... like one in the middle.. and then one on the top and bottom of the tread on opposite sides.. kinda like making a half V

go out and buy 1000 studs and put one or even two in every lug,forget the pattern..i just put 500 in each one of my spider tracs and it hooks up sweet..when i wanna go and play on the ice it kinda sucks because i hook up way to good,so it doesnt slide around as easy..remember to stud the front tires pretty good also,otherwise you wont be turnning..

thats what Im thinkin forget the pattern maybe just put 3 in each lug safer that way to I wont take a chance on going through then thats basically what I want to know if I were to put in 3 verses fill the whole lug would I still have good hook-up?

i just finished my tires... i started at 7ish.. just finish now at 10... ALOTTA SCREWS!!!!!
i put 4 in the middle luggs then put 2 in the ones near em... then 4 on the full outer luggs... i think i need 3 but imma just try 2 for now...
just putting 4 in each lugg would be all ya really need... i am just trying different patterns to try to get it to corner better... but if you aint to worried about it then id just throw some in there and have fun!
i was gonna try to get some pics up tonite.. but i finished too late and the digital camera i was gonna use isnt avalible right now... ill try to get some riding pics and some pics of my tires up tomorrow.
