UDI Equipment inc., MaxiGrip | Frequently Asked Question
If they are fitted according to the instructions provided they will remain fixed, even in extreme conditions.
The Maxigrip stud has been thoroughly tested and developed over five years. It has been tested on everything from tractors and off-road motorcycles to snowmobiles and boots.
No, but ensure that the tread depth is adequate prior to fitting.
Large tires normally have a good margin, but never use a stud that is longer than the tread depth of the tire. The stud should be fitted so that 3 mm is visible above the tire surface to ensure that the wheel cord remains unaffected.
We recommend around 100 studs per tractor tire, and 2-3 studs per contact patch. There are normally around 40 contact patches on each tire regardless of its diameter.
Industrial tires normally require 150 studs per tire.
Trucks and ATVs normally require 50-100 studs per tire.
We recommend 70-100 studs per tire for Cross and Enduro bikes.

No! The tire will have more but smaller holes.
The stud will only leave small marks in the rubber where the stud has been placed. After using the studs for one season the marks are almost unnoticeable, after the second season they will get slightly bigger.
