Studded tires will benefit you greatly on ice and sometimes in very hard-packed snow. Loose and/or deep snow, wet or dry pavement however studs will actually give you Less traction than snow tires.

Also, check your local laws, in most parts of the country they are illegal to use because they tear up the roads faster.
