Car tire stud sizes

January 24, 2025

Which cars need anti skid studs in winter?

Snow and ice in winter can easily cause vehicles to skid, especially in mountainous, northern or extremely cold areas, where icy roads are very common.

Sedans and SUVs that often drive on snowy or icy roads need to be equipped with anti skid studs; trucks and logistics vehicles have heavier loads and higher requirements for grip, and anti skid studs can effectively guarantee driving stability. Off-road vehicles need to be installed in complex terrain such as mud, snow and ice to ensure driving safety; special vehicles, such as ambulances, police cars, etc., must maintain a reliable grip and quick response in any weather.

 


How to choose the right size of anti skid studs?

When choosing car tire stud size, it should be based on the tire thickness and hole diameter, vehicle type and use, and tire stud material. The thickness and hole diameter of different tire models vary, and the length of the stud should be slightly longer than the depth of the tire hole, so that the stud head can slightly protrude from the surface of the tire without affecting the grip performance.

Shorter studs (usually 6-8 mm) are suitable for car tires.

Medium length studs (8-10 mm) are recommended for SUV and light truck tires.

Heavy truck or off-road vehicle tires usually require longer studs (10-15 mm) to cope with complex road conditions.

High-strength tungsten carbide studs are suitable for frequent use and bad weather; ordinary metal studs are suitable for short-term or temporary use.

 

Choosing the right size of anti-skid studs not only improves the grip on icy roads, but also avoids extra wear and tear on tires and road surfaces. Contact the experts at Jinxin to help you choose the right size studs to help you drive smoothly on snow and ice.
