I'd say 90% of my winter riding is on dry pavement. The studded tires have shown very little wear, but I keep them on there, for the few stretches of icy road.
You bet! I felt a little sheepish in asking, but I dug through the Winter Cycling past and a couple other searches didn't turn up what I was hoping for.

I pumped my tires up to 30/35 for last night's club ride (which didn't end up being a ride, but I rode to the meeting place and back), and it did feel a little more secure without losing much comfort. I'll stick with that for the time being, and report any more mishaps if they happen.
