There's no "might" to studded tires and to be truthful, a rear wheel drive with studded tires front and rear will get you wherer you want to go far more safely than anything else.
There are regulations regarding the periods of usage but that's not a problem. I had two sets of rims as well and the changeover was quick and easy. We drove through an ice and snow storm coming back from Pittsburgh one night and were just about the only thing moving very well. Tons of cars off the road but common sense and a slow pace combined with "UberPanzer" and we made it home when we had to.
UberPanzer.......because on a dry road, the 4 studded tires along with the normal 6 cylinder BMW engine sound was sorta' tanklike and her ability to go through anything made the name a real fit.
