I got this to go to the mountains and see the snow. First, these traction devices are extremely difficult to put on. It took both of us over an hour to put them on. As we moved the car, the hooks on the straps that were supposed to hold the chains flexed and made a horrible squeak. After we took off the chains, we got stuck in the mountains and the blizzard passed over us without traction. It was scary. Thank you AAA for helping us sort through those terrible chains.
