Every time there is a composory chain fitting area I spend 2 mins chucking mine on and then about 30 mins helping everyone else who have no idea. I also like to drive a couple of hundred meters up the road and then re-check/tighten them if needed. I've had a set of cheap ones come loose (from broken links) and its not pretty on the road when your chain is flying round and round into your pannel and inner gaurd. Lucky it was the work car and i had warned work not to buy cheap shit chains.
I also like to carry a tarp so you can kneel on the snow without getting soaked and when it's really bad I pull the abs fuse. The amount of nose to tails up the ski fields every week that are caused from not being able to lock your chains onto the ground when you start slipping from abs is unbelivable. You can have the best ice breaker chains in the world but if you can't lock your wheels when you want the mto bite in then its a waste of time.
So in your opinion do you think having 4 chains is the way to go or just 2? (1 pair)
