How To Apply Snow Cables: Don's Tires Tips

Are you planning to drive in severe winter conditions? For your safety, it's important to be prepared with the right equipment. At Don's Tire Service, we’re here to help you install snow cables on your car tires so that you can stay safe during the winter season.

Snow cables are a great way to add extra traction to your tires when driving in snow and ice. They’re a cost-effective solution that helps maximize the effectiveness of your existing winter tires, allowing you to drive with confidence in even the worst conditions.

Ever wondered how to properly install snow cables? Before you head out on your next snow adventure, let us tell you how to properly apply them!

  1. Lay your snow cables in front of your tires and drive over them.
  2. Wrap the cable on the tire and lock the hooks.
  3. Put the rubber to tighten the cables
  4. Tighten and secure, and you're good to go!

Tip: If your vehicle is front wheel drive, the chain goes in the front. If your vehicle is rear wheel drive, the chain goes in the back. If 4 wheel drive, the chain goes in the front.

And now, you're ready for your next snow adventure! Check back for future tire tips. Don's Tire Service in Berkeley, CA is here to offer helpful tips for a great driving experience.
