Asphalt is mostly a luxury around here. I have to cross a county maintained asphalt road to go from one property to another, but that's about it.
I guess chains also have more surface/digging power. But I am intrigued with trying studs.. maybe once I fix 4x4 I'll put them on front tires, as they'll need to be retired in a year or two anyway and can be "played" with. The intriguing part they could be kept on all the time, be asphalt friendly (for when I have to drive up the asphalt road) and taken advantage off off-season (w/o snow)
