Good luck!
Nah, noooooooo no no no way!! Haha. Took probably 45 mins to cut down all 600-something screws total.

They work awesome. It's fun. They were most definitely too long and now stick out 1/8-1/4 inch.

They sound like crackling ice on dry pavement but work fine, and are long enough at 1/4" so that they can wear down and be useful for a long time. Shwing. I really think these are better than nokians in terms of # of studs & price for my uses. These really dig in when you press the brakes on a couple inches of snow. I can't imagine the nokian studs doing that. Probably only a small difference anyways, though. Of course, I haven't compared nokians to mine, so that's just a guess.
