🚗 Enhance Road Safety with Glacier 1038 Passenger Cable Tire Chain - Set of 2 Review

. Bought for my Subaru Forester (along with tensioners). Subaru actually says they shouldn't put chains on their cars, but in some places they have to be in the car independent of your transmission. Basically, I made them not break the rules. Turns out I really needed her! (Crossing the Cascades in winter can be rough, y'all) They were very unremarkable (which you should have if you have a Subaru: thick chains = big problems) and the ride was actually very smooth, barring blizzard conditions…

This can save you a lot of trouble. The Glacier/Pewag website has a very helpful size chart for passenger items. Be sure to check all applicable laws regarding when…

That's what the new instructions say. Ignore the reviewer who showed a photo of directions with instructions not to use them. These cables are just what you need in an emergency when you're at work and it's snowed all day and they've stood up to the plowing of the streets. I have a 35 mile commute with hills and they…
