Snow Chains for 4x4

For cars with a four-wheel drive, or 4x4 vehicles, there are special snow chains available. These chains are much stronger than the chains used for the average passenger car, with the snow chain you need being dependent on your vehicle. A general rule is that the chains be mounted to the front or rear wheels depending on the drive of your car. For 4x4s, the chains can go on either the front or back tyres. We recommend mounting the snow chain on your rear wheels during a descent, and on the front wheels when going uphill. This reduces the risk of slipping. Before buying a snow chain, make sure that you check the type of chains that are suitable for your car, and what other requirements there might be, such as space in the wheel well.
