Thanks for all the feedback so far. I will say that the Clem would be used on days of more significant snowfall, so I am considering more off-road oriented tires as well. Looks like the Nokian W106 and the Schwalbe Marathon Winter 2.0" are on my list. Possibly Schwalbe Ice Spikers. Also considering the 45nrth Nicotine: http://45nrth.com/products/tires/nicotine - fenders would need to come off for that one. My commute starts with a few miles of gravel/dirt trail - I haven't checked yet but I'm guessing that doesn't see any treatment during the winter for snow removal - followed by 10 miles of semi-side streets that will have more residual snow/ice than main thoroughfares. Since I already have a bike set up with ~40mm studs, I'm inclined to have the Clem set up for more extreme winter conditions. Anyone have experience withe 45nrth tires or Schwalbe Ice Spikers? I guess this would be a WTB as well is anyone has something to sell. David
