Would it be possible to stud the tires of the scooter??
don't see why not, you can stud any tires if you wanted to no?
Like I said they say, nothing stops a party barge.

I'd say try it. And make sure you take pics or video for us to enjoy!
you won't do it with a broken foot...
If you can't Race it or take it to bed, it's not worth having..
i would, but my foot is still broken. I need a guinea pig

I used to ice race with a guy who used carriage bolts along with nuts and fender washers. Said the tires held air pretty well, all things considered.
Not sure how small carriage bolts go but it might be worth looking into..
Carriage bolts.. with gorilla snot on the inside of the tire... and a can of fix a flat in each one. Any snowmobile dealer sells an attachment to sharpen non carbide studs which works pisser well on soft carriage bolt metal.I used to ice race with a guy who used carriage bolts along with nuts and fender washers.

You can use these self-tapping studs:

Or you can do what my friend John and I are doing in the next couple weeks: drill the tire treads to a specified depth and use a studding gun to install regular automotive tire studs (much cheaper than the self-tapping ones). For the record, I'm going to be studding the Conti TKC-80s on my Honda XR650L, not scooter tires.

Mount some knobbies, stud those. Remove the shrader valve from your wheel, and slip a liner and tube into the tire, and run that way.
Doc, just pick up a cheap set of knobbies for the pit bike and join John and me for the tire-studding session.
