Snow chains

This is the first question that comes up when you face the need to get chains to carry in your trunk this winter. The answer is no. The possibilities are multiple, and we will tell you everything so that you have all the information before choosing. The main distinction is between textile and metal chains, which are the two best known and used. In addition, there are other minority proposals, which are recommended for very specific cases. An example of this are the liquid chains, which is actually a spray that must be applied to the tire so that its adherence is greater. Our advice is that this product be reserved only as a provisional solution, since its effectiveness is very limited. However, it does not hurt to take it in the car in cases such as a fall with anticipated cold, but it is not the best for the harshest winter. It should also be noted that it is not a valid solution if a mandatory use of strings is decreed. Among the proposals that have fewer followers are also semi-automatic chains or Spikes Spider. They are designed for situations where there are large amounts of ice or snow. Therefore, they are not the option for all drivers, but for those areas where the snow is very abundant, something that is not frequent in our country. Its high price is also a point against, since it represents a significantly higher outlay than the other options. Thus, the doubt for the average user is between textiles and metals. We explain below the main differences. Do not lose detail and discover our snow chains.

The solution to this question will depend on the budget you have and your expertise when it comes to placing this accessory. The metal chains have in their favor a positive value for money and great safety. In addition, they are the cheapest, although they have the disadvantage of the noise they cause, a greater weight and a more complex assembly. Another point against them is that they are not suitable for using the ESP system or stability control correctly. On the other hand, when the snow is gone they can cause damage to the rim and tire.

For their part, textile or fabric chains have become popular in recent times for their obvious advantages, such as their light weight and simplicity in assembly. So if you are not especially handyman, although its price is somewhat higher than the metallic ones, this will be your choice without hesitation.

To this we must add that they are smoother in circulation and that they are compatible with ESP and ABS systems. Another advantage is that given the lightness of the material in which they are manufactured, they do not cause damage to the wheel and rim. In contrast, the main disadvantage is that their duration is shorter, since they are more easily damaged. To minimize this downside, our advice is to not exceed the manufacturer's stated speed.
