Snow socks

Snow socks are textile alternative traction devices to snow chains. They are used to improve traction when driving on snowy or icy roads.

Limitations

  • Only use snow socks on the rear (drive) wheels.
  • Only use snow socks on snowy or icy roads.
  • Do not exceed 50 km/h when driving with snow socks installed.
  • Only use snow socks that are compatible with the fitted wheels and tires on the car.

Always follow the instructions from the snow socks manufacturer when installing snow socks. After installing snow socks, make sure the wheels have enough space around them to rotate and turn freely.

Note
Always check the local regulations before installing snow socks.
Note
We recommend practicing installing snow socks once before you travel and driving more gently (no harsh accelerating or braking) as much as possible.
