Okay, so studs are wonderful. Studs are work. So I'm buying a second set of wheels to put my regular tires on.
I decided to go with a nicer set of wheels than I have. They're lower spoke count and lighter. The same rim width for easy swapping. ALX220's for under $250. It's good to know that not everyone is insane and you can buy wheelsets that are cost effective (assuming these don't turn out to be cheap junk).
So I'll put my normal street tires on these and put them on on days like Friday where I really didn't need any studs.
