Nokian hakkapeliitta lt3

[07Serria]

Does anyone have experience running the Nokian hakkapeliitta lt3 on a heavy duty truck? I'm going to need a new set of studded snow tires for plowing next year and i'm wondering how these perform, specifically  in slush and deep snow.

I have never put studded tires on a plow truck before. Just some ballast and a set of cookie cutter A/T's. Can't see why it would hurt though, just cant imagine it helping much either unless you're on some slippery asphalt lots. Tire studs are pretty short and I find they wont do anything in snow but only help a bit on hard packed ice or iced up asphalt. What is the truck, what do you have for a plow and what do you use as ballast?
