I use those exact tires as well. On Concrete the studs push into the rubber and the rubber grips just like a non studded tire would. Since Ice is softer, the stud bites into the ice. Works like a charm, I've put away the fg for winter and am currently running a single speed converted hybrid with the studs and the winter has been real nice ever since.
