If they are very damaging, they should carry a high sales tax to recoup the damage over the course of the service life.
Studded tires cause $27 million a year in damage to Oregon state highways (That does not include damage paid by federal, county, or city governments)

We should just ban studded tires and mandate winter tires be used in the winter.
