Wow new SRX and no pics? LOL.....Welcome to the site, lots info here just read up.
We all would love to see that blue beauty!
I would likely run 1.325s in a 3 per/row quantity......I tend to like my 2/4/2/4 pattern, lots of stud threads around so check them out.

Just remember when looking for stud length recommendations that most studding threads are for 1.25" tracks vs your 1".

Likely will tickle the alum vents, maybe even wear right thru without additional protection.1.5 studboy lake racers for my srx

1.325 would work great. Don’t forget you need tunnel protectors. They are easy to install.Looking to stud my track on the new SRX LE with the 1" ripsaw track , any ideas on what anyone used on latest sidewinder? Quantities and patterns?
I have the 3 sidewinders we run studded 144 down the middle. 3 per pitch. I love this setup for trail. Lots of traction but can still get the back loose if I want too.

Dan,
Don’t you mean 2 per row quantity? I saw your pictures of your studs..I could have sworn you had two singles(2studs) in one row and 2 doubles(4 studs) in the next row...hence 2/4/2/4.
Or am I misunderstanding/misremembering??? Lol.

Same amount of studs. Dan runs doubles so he uses the 2/4/2 . I run all singles 3 per row. I just stagger the patternDan,

Oh I get that...I was meaning he said 3 per row, he couldn’t have 3 per row with that pattern?? You could obviously, but I don’t understand how he could have 3 per row?

WELCOME Mr 19!
I'm assuming 19 is your year sled, not your age. I believe you are my age 38. Actually we are both 51, but don't tell anyone.
You need to stay up 'til 2 am for the next week reading as much as you can on TY.
Then you can get serious and start really reading.
If you check the web site twice a day, you can be part of the TyOCDer's club.
If you check it more then 3 times a day......well......you've got problems......the only cure is SNOW!

I was thinking we should make ALL Sidewinder newbies read Dan's build thread.
But then no one would have any questions and then i wouldn't be able to say anything ridiculous or stupid.
So i retract my original statement.
