With a slight overlap to the pattern...or you end up with three straight grooves in the ice...

Do that X10 and they should work good or better yet use bolts and fender washers put the bolts thru from the inside and sharpen the bolts those work real good even in snow.

One thing to remember, don't over do the back tires.  (alot more than the fronts) because you won't be able to steer.  Just like studding a sled, too many studs and not enough carbide on the skis=can't turn.  To much carbide and not enough studs=spin out turn to fast.
I'd also stager the screws so you have more scratch lines.  I think you will need more so the tires will roll.  It looks like they may want to stop and slide.
Let us know how it turns out and what combination you end up using in your final set up.

we use sheet metal screws for our ice racing and we use about 200 per tire for the best traction.
