Review on πŸ”— Discover the Advantages of AUTOSOCK 685 Size-685: The Perfect Tire Chain Alternative by Born Waheed

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easier than chains and work very well, interesting to see how well they hold up to wear and tear

Takes less than 5 minutes to put them on even if you're just stuck in the snow and they are working very good. Spring. A moment of fun as the CX-9s tried to jump out of their area in front of me and turned towards the curb leading back to their area. It doesn't often snow in the town where I live, but when it fell last winter it saved our lives. Again, it's incredibly easy to install, even if you're stuck and haven't installed or tested them before (which, of course, was stupid of me not to review or get acquainted with them). They're even easier to take off, you just pull them on instantly - of course don't leave them on when parked. One thing I would note is that although they don't have a great range and only top out at 30mph on non-bare roads, they're already showing some wear. There may have been small road bare patches and actual wear was simply due to the woven fabric being a little fuzzy, but I wonder how well they will hold up over time. It is the only WSDOT approved product as a towbar for all vehicles, from cars to trailers. Best of all, these pups aren't babumpadumpas who ride awkwardly like chains. Also, don't be a cheap idiot and put yourself and other drivers at risk - have a set of snow tires ready.

Pros

Cons
