Yeah he quoted me $30 a tire but his hours of operation really suck, I would have to take a day off work to take them into him.

I've got some KW-19's that are made for studs, to have studs put in them. I see your confusion and raise you a thread title rifled with innuendo.

No.

They are legal year-round in Calgary. They are also legal year-round in Quebec. In Ontario they are illegal at any time. In Manitoba (and I believe Sask, too) they are only legal starting in October and ending in April - you cannot run studs in the 'summer' months.

I haven't checked the laws for BC or the maritime provinces.

Edit: The Ontario HTA actually specifies 'northern ontario' as being exempt from that equipment specification, and can run studded tires.
