Buying guide

Best For: Aggressive ice and hardpack traction.

Recommended for ice and hardpack snow where aggressive V-bar bite is needed.

Fits tire size 38-13-16; confirm the tire sidewall and vehicle clearance before installing.

No-cam design; use rubber adjusters/tensioners as needed and recheck tension after a short drive.

Boron alloy steel construction can last up to 80% longer than regular Rockwell 56 steel.

Avoid: V-bars can damage pavement/concrete; verify clearance.
