I've had sleds since the late 60's. I use to swear by studs. In the past few years, tread patterns and the materials they use for the belts have gotten so sophisticated, I don't feel the needs for studs.

So it is personal preference. I was told that studding every other banks of stud holes will be sufficient with the new sleds.
