A driver can activate the studs for driving in icy and/or snowy conditions without manual replacement of all-weather tires to snow or studded tires as well as the installation of snow chains.The invention can be incorporated in an airless tire vehicle's traction control system and anti-lock brake system (ABS), which the traction control system can activate the retractable studs to add traction on one or more wheels. In addition, this invention provides a better thermal dissipation for airless tires.
