Heavy snowfall in winter<\/a> can make the roads slippery and unsafe. By installing winter tires or putting a snow chain on your tires, you can increase their traction and drive safely. However, some car owners find it frustrating and difficult to put snow chains on the vehicle’s tires. In this post, we’ll guide you step-by-step on how to put snow chains on your tires without any hassle.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How to put snow chains on your tires \u2013 A step-by-step guide\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Step 1 \u2013 Get the right snow chain\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

For the snow chains to be working properly, they need to be tight and fit perfectly to your tires. Therefore, purchase the right snow chain that fits your tire. You can find the measurements and specifications on the tire’s sidewall.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For vehicles with front-wheel-drive, put the chains to the front wheels, and for vehicles with back wheel-drive, put them on the back wheels. And if it’s all-wheel drive, put the chains on all the tires or the front wheels for better steering traction.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 2 \u2013 Drape the chains\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Before draping the chain, lay it down near the tire you will be working on and make sure there are no twists and turns. After straightening, drape over the tire, with one end tucked under the front of the tire. Some drivers lay the chain in front of the car and then drive on; never do that! You need to guess, drive and adjust to perfectly fit the chains, which can take up a lot of your time. However, if you’re draping it, you only need to move forward three to four feet. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 3 \u2013 Connect the chain\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Now drive a little to bring the portion of the tire that was previously not accessible. Before parking your vehicle, turn the wheel slightly for easy access. Next, connect the ends of each tire chain according to the chains anchor system. After connecting, check if it is tight and aligned properly. Now repeat the same step for other tires. Once you’re done putting the chains drive, check if they are working properly. If not, make them tight.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
