This Auto Sock is awsome , I was amazed at how quickly they went on and what a perfect ride on snow and ice I had to work ! I didn’t even ask my Husband to help !

These actually do help improve traction on snow covered roads, and they are a snap to put on and take off compared to chains (less than a minute). They are also much more quiet than chains, you will almost forget you have then on (this could be a problem since they need to be removed once you get back on dry pavement). The only downside is they don’t offer as much traction as chains do especially in deeper snow. Overall I consider them a worthwhile purchase.

I used them on a 1993 toyota corolla wagon in heavy slushy ice up a steep hill and they worked really well. I would recommend a pair for every vehicle I own that is not 4 wheel drive. Just remember to drive slow and steady with these and then take them off immediately after you are on better roads. Dont drive above 20-25 mph on them.

I was pleasantly surprised by this quirky traction aid. I was a little disappointed when I received these as I had only seen them online - when I took them out of the package, they looked like they wouldn’t work at all. But, having used them during the last snow storm here in Toronto, I have to give them a positive review. I would note that these ARE NOT a replacement for snow tires (not sure how long they will last, can’t drive above 35mph or on clean pavement) but for short trips in a storm or an emergency, they deliver as promised. They go on like their website suggests and come off easy too. I usually only drive to the train station so I don’t need full snow tires - my wife has them on her car. In short, great for the second car. Sorry Amazon, hard to tell which size to buy from your website, check out the tirerack.com for a better idea which one to buy.
