Studded snow tyres are used to prevent automobiles from slipping on icecovered roads. In this paper, the noise generated by a passenger automobile equipped with studded snow tyres is studied and compared with the noise generated when regular snow tyres are used. One-third octave band spectrum analysis reveals the existence of two distinct frequency regions, one above, and the other below, 200 Hz. In the higher frequency region, the spectral levels are dependent on the tyre type. In contrast, in the lower frequency region, the spectral levels are independent of tyre type.
