Review on πŸš— SZ343 Shur Grip Super Z Passenger Car Tire Traction Chain - Set of 2 by Security Chain Company by David Cook

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great!: Snow chains

Purchased for our 2014 Ford Focus SE 5 door. They work great! We've used them on snowy freeways and heavily snowed back roads and they've kept us going. Note that the manufacturer limits the speed you must go at when using them, so don't plan on flying the highway at normal speed. They're pretty easy to install, but I highly recommend trying them out on dry pavement in your driveway or in your parking lot before you have to use them on a snowy roadside in the mountains! If you are using these on a vehicle with minimal tire to wheel arch clearance like our Focus I would suggest bringing an overcoat and thin work gloves to install the tracks as to get the rear link on the track you really have to get in squeeze hands and forearms between tires and wheel wells, both covered in snow/ice and road salt. I would also suggest bringing an old blanket or large towel to crouch on when you set them up so you don't get your pants dirty. I would also suggest bringing a vertical flashlight in case you mount it or take pictures in the dark or low light, the extra light really helps. One more thing, don't worry if the installed tracks appear uneven during installation, they will quickly level themselves on the track once you move.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Frequency
