Thats the real advantage of the Alpins. They handle like an all season in the dry, unlike some of the studded tires and wollowy lesser tires. I feel they are really good for packed powder and new snow, but get kinda sketchy on the slush. I still feel that better traction can be had with a studded Nokian/Gislaved but to me its not worth the feel of studs in the dry, which it is 98% of the time. Also studs wear out or bend over or fall out quick when used on dry too much, rendering the tire useless.
