The invention discloses a vehicle tire and an anti-skid stud. The vehicle tire (1) includes a tread intended for a rolling contact against a foundation (P), the tread having a tread pattern which includes circumferential and transverse grooves for removing water from a contact patch between the foundation and the tire, and anti-skid studs (3) mounted in the tread and including a stud body (4) and a hard metal pin (5) secured thereto. An end of the metal pin (5), intended against a foundation, is formed as an inclined surface (51), whereby the metal pin has its end provided with the inclined surface acting on the foundation in an axial direction (A) of the metal pin to a varying depth and the inclined surface being placed relative to a rotating direction (DR) of the tire in such an orientation that, as the tire (1) is rolling freely forward, a leading edge (511) of the hard metal pin (5) to impinge first on the foundation is lower than a trailing edge (512). The invention also relates to the corresponding anti-skid stud (3).
