Review on ❄️ AutoSock X40 Traction Aid for Passenger Tires, Enhanced Winter Performance by Kenny Hrdlicka

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits perfectly for its intended purpose

The set just ordered is my second set. I had a previous kit for a car that I had just turned in that didn't fit the tires on my new car. You have to think about what the car sock is for. Not a full chain replacement (do not drive on dry roads). Think of them as the best version of those plastic "bear claws" strips you can get to help you get out of a stuck spot (tuck them under your wheels and hope they don't fly too far ). I use them to get up my fairly steep, very slippery road when I haven't been able to clear it yet. Essentially, it involves getting up as far as you can, getting out, putting on my car socks, rolling back a bit to finish, putting on a ride and getting up. Nothing else I've tried has worked either. It's just stuff. Why expect them to work as a remote solution when you don't need them?

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Negative impression
