 Poster: A snowHead
|
Going to the French Alps over Christmas and need to get some chains. I can't seem to find any that are my exact tyre size (255/70R18). Does anyone know if i go for a bigger dimension in one direction and a smaller dimension in another direction that would then fit my tyres??
As you can imagine, most snow chain companies at the moment are too busy to give any advice.
Thank you

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Klack and Go chains ( quattros in my case ) are brilliant and are adjustable to different sizes wheels so can be moved to another car when you change in the future. Easily the easiest to put on and off BUT not cheap. Worth it though and you may need them in the UK it seems ! I purchased mine through Snowchains. co.uk as above

In that case there must be at least two "Easily the easiest to put on"  because I've used both the Klack and Go and the RUD Easy2Go chains and I think that, if anything, the RUDs are slightly easier to fit, but, in any event, they are both very straight forward to fit and remove (also very important!).

Thule K-Summit, again not cheap, but the buisiness

+1 for the Klack and Go chains
Got ours from Snowchains.co.uk as well
Came in a couple of days but that was before the weather went white
As others have said not cheep but quick to fit and remove
Mrs G has been using them this week  they were just bought as a backup as we dont get snow in the uk (must have spent about two hours clearing the stuff today)

You could buy direct from the Weissenfels web site.
Allopneus.com also have your size in stock but I don't know if they deliver to the UK,call them up and ask they can only say no.
