Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The chains work well when driving on icy roads around lake tahoe including freeway 80. They handle incredibly well, even on ice. The forester has a very close clearance to the body. Drive with it for about 50 miles, so far no issues.

Not too difficult to install after practicing.

Sz331 fits for my prius v with 215/50 17inch tires. They chains fit but also very snug in there. Easy to reach between the top of the tire and the fender.

You don't need to retighten the cables after a short drive; the tensioner (included) takes care of this. They also come with the black band to tighten the chains.



Cons

Every small detail is important and is hard to grasp from the way the instructions describe the installation process. Perhaps i am just an idiot who can't read instructions.

    I will say get a pair of heavy duty kitchen dishwashing gloves and keep them with the cables because you will get dirty removing them
