How to choose the right snow chain

Check your tyre size

 

Important when you hire or buy your snow chains

Chains are to be fitted to the two driving wheels. I.E. Front wheel on a front wheel drive; rear wheel on a rear wheel drive; usually front wheels on a four wheel drive. Always refer to the manufacturers handbook for correct placement of chains

When fitting, pull off to the left of the road as far as possible. Use a chain fitting bay if available, make sure your vehicle is visible from both directions

 

Check the "Vehicle Manufacturer’s booklet" to ensure that the use of chains is approved for the application/tyre size.

Remember to fit the chains on the driving wheels. Refer Manufacturer’s hand book for correct placement.
