    I biked in winter just fine. There are winter tires for bicycles too, and it’s usually fine unless streets turned into glacier, but cars aren’t much better in that situation too.

        There definitely are, they make them in a variety of sizes, so they should fit your bike fine.

        But, be aware, it’s different when using them. If you have a mountain-bike style tire, snow might be ok, but ice is dangerous. It’s basically the opposite with a studded tire. If the snow is thick enough that you ride on top of it, you won’t have much traction. You want the studs to bite into the ice instead.
