Studs aren't going to help you with snow or heavily rutted ice. Rutted ice requires caution and that's the only thing that can help. In deep snow you want fatter tires, but ice (like this morning) where you can't quite tell where it is or it's thin and sheer is where studs will help.

I'd speak more from experience if I hadn't bought the wrong size studded tires the other day.. Grr.
