Winter tires with removed studs as summer tires? I have just a set of summer tires in very poor condition and a huge heap of studded winter tires. Selling winter tires is very hard so I got an idea to use the winter tires as summer tires with removed studs. 


Is it a good idea and how should you remove studs without damaging the tire itself? 
Can you use the tire afterwards as winter tire or will the studs become too loose? Any experience?
Should I fill the stud-positions with something if I remove the studs?


The winter tires are W106 Nokian tyres, Hakkapeliitta.
While the tire itself might or might not be intact after removing the studs, the tube inside the tire would suffer. Studs are installed by piercing the tire itself, and you'd have to patch the hole left by each stud or you'd have blowouts. 

I suggest selling the extra studded tires.
