Who knows the make and model of those tires ?
Apologies if I haven't understood your question correctly, but if there is

If you look closely, the hub is a White XMRT, which is their tandem hub
(145mm spacing, QR, disk compatible). I wonder if the rear dropout has 145

ice/pavement below, the studs have nothing to bite into, and one can lose
