just screw some small zip screws into the tires on the knobbies, the heads of the screws will be exposed and should give you alot of grip on the ice.

If you use screws make sure to fasten them on the inside before gluing the tires, otherwise they will just fall out or ruin the tires in time.

I think I'll just use some sheet metal scews. I have to plow out a track with the four wheeler, should be fun to see what I can break on the ice. Should be able to make some bad ***** jumps.
