what kind of riding will you do? for me, the wider my tire the slower I go. big fat monsters provide grip but I don't go anywhere. if I'm commuting, narrow studs are the way I go. I'll be able to dig down to pavement. wide tires might provide some flotation over softer terrain, but snow is evil & some conditions are not bike worthy. then there's winter mud, downright flypaper & wheels don't like to roll over that. big fat wide studded monsters are great over hard frozen terrain, but how often do we get that?
