Are studded tires legal in Georgia?

Only under conditions. Georgia sets no studded tire season. Safety metal spike studs are allowed when snow, ice or similar conditions call for them. O.C.G.A. 40-8-74(c)(2) reads: "Tire chains of reasonable proportions or tires equipped with safety metal spike studs upon any vehicle when required for safety because of snow, ice, or other conditions tending to cause a vehicle to skid."

The permission is an exception to the general rule against anything but rubber touching the road.

Chains of reasonable size are allowed under the same clause, when snow or ice makes them necessary. The statute reads: "Tire chains of reasonable proportions or tires equipped with safety metal spike studs upon any vehicle when required for safety because of snow, ice, or other conditions tending to cause a vehicle to skid."
