I've always used studded tires and currently have firestone winterfrost on all 4 wheels. They have an aggressive tread and are not that loud on dry roads but are louuder than nonstudded tiiiires. If you get "black ice" then the studs will help you drive and also stop without slipping. They run about $80 a tire and as far as i'm concerned are a good deal. my wife insists on the studs for the added safety. But some states do not allow them and they need to be put on and taken off by specific dates.
