I had my car inspected locally at a tire place. I'm fearful of driving in snow, and asked the manager there about studded snow tires. He said to have all four tires studded for better control, but I've heard elsewhere that I only need the 2 front snow tires studded. Is this correct?

Thanks,
Susan

Get all four studded tires-not only the snow but the ice below it-I've been in places that the studded tires at times is useless and you have to slap on the chains-Take my advice
