Questions & Answers
Autosocks would be a waste of money for me. You won't need winter tires if you have all-wheel drive, and you'll probably be fine with All-Season Tires as well. Autosocks are only useful when there is actual snow on the ground. At least a few inches, if not more. Even the tiniest amount of slush causes them to disintegrate quickly. And they don't last a mile on bare pavement; I bought four sets of Autosocks and they all fell apart while driving through California on Interstate 80. Long, bare-pavement drives are required in California. Autosocks, in my opinion, are only useful in very specific situations. I'm not going to buy them again. If you must have two-wheel drive, invest in some good tires or another traction device.
Part number AL79 is what you're looking for.
Yes, there are two autosocks included in the package. Thanks.
If you know the size of your tire and purchase an auto sock for that size tire, it doesn't matter what vehicle it's on.
Selected User Reviews For AUTOSOCK AL84 Size-AL84 Tire Chain Alternative
I haven't used them yet and have no intention of doing so in the near future. They were purchased to comply with chain laws in the states where I travel. They're small, portable, and stylish. I'll update if I use them, but I park when chains are required. Yes, I'm a wuss, but I don't have to drive through that filth any longer.
While it is not recommended that you get into a situation where you need to use traction devices, this product will get you out of it faster than installing heavy chains. Use them to get to a safe parking spot near you and wait out the winter weather until the all-weather plow arrives. It's made very clear. To compensate for the weight of heavy chains, it is lighter in weight.
I tried them on to make sure they fit, but I haven't had the opportunity to put them to use yet.
It is light in weight and takes up little storage space.
