only 50-100 per tire though. If it is for ice racing use 3/4 or 1 inch studs

Best thing to do is buy extra set of tires and stud them. Stay off the roads or your lose them fast.

well... dirtwheels doesnt know **** to be honest with you... thats not even 1 screw per lug... you need more.. and it isnt hard on the axel.
you need to put atleast 2 per lug.. and 3-4 would be alot better

studde up my sons banshee the other day.. 1300 - 1/2" sheet metal screws in the rear tires.
it wheelies on glare ice. we put skis on the front using plastic skis and arctic cat spindles off a 1000 cat. tied them in to the ball joints and braced with tube. runs great and looks coooool.
