At the BACK of your boots!
Soccer boots are lower cut and and 6 studs - rugby boots are cut slightly high at the ankle and can have 8 studs
Yes. If you wear metal studs on an icy concrete surface, you will slip all over the place. If you wear rubber studs, they will grip easier. So therefore, rubber studs are better.

Rugby boots need studs in order to offer the player grip on grass and mud, which can be slippy.
Can you change the metal spikes to plastic ones on puma soccer boots
some forwards prefer to where boots with 6 studs in the front sole and 4 in the heel whilst the majority (normally backs) will wear boots with a standard 4 studs in the front sole and 2 in the heel

For grip. When boots were first worn they were working boots and the studs were flat. Protruding studs made of wood were created and these were nailed into the shoe sole. These later were made of rubber moulding and later alluminium screw in versions. Studs were and are used to provide grip in grass and muddy conditions thus allowing plays greater maneuverability

Normally leather upper and a synthetic sole. The studs are normally aluminium
Studs on biker's boots would seem to be simply a fashion accessory or detail. In past history motorcycling boots were relatively plain, created for comfort and protection, and this still holds true when use in sports.
