I guess that doesn't surprise me. The studs I see on people's cars look pretty worn down after a season or two, because most of the time the roads are bare (New Hampshire does a pretty good job of plowing). So I really wonder just how much value there is to having studded tires after they wear a bit.
There are definitely times when studs make a huge difference, but I've rarely not been able to get along with full snows or Nokian WRs.
