How to Convert Bicycle Tires Into Studded Snow Tires - Wikihow (number 3 scares me)
Method 1
- 1Purchase the right supplies, as listed in the "Things You'll Need" below.
- 2Drill (using a very small bit) down from the center of chosen knob into the tire.
- 3Drill a screw up from inside-out. If the angle isn't perpendicular to the tire, it'll stick out one side or the other.
- Do one hole and screw at a time. Don't try drilling all the holes, then installing screws...you'll drive yourself crazy trying to find which knob you drilled.

- 4Put duct tape over the screws on the inside of the tire; sometimes it is best to use two layers of tape. You can purchase "tire liners" (there are a few brands include Slime and Mr. Tuffy) that are designed to go in between the tube and the tire instead of using duct tape to protect the tube.
- 5Mount the tires back on the rims. Getting the tires mounted on the rims will be difficult, comparable to wrestling a rabid porcupine.
