Tips for choosing
When choosing lugs for your car, it is important to familiarize yourself not only with the characteristics of the models, but also with reviews of Avtodelo snow chains, in which buyers share their personal experience in using the design. It is necessary to understand for what purposes the device will be used. For example, some models do an excellent job with spring mud, but in winter they can stall in loose snow. And there are chains specially designed for driving on ice and wetlands.

And before using the chains for their intended purpose, it is recommended to try them on the wheels to make sure that they do not come into contact with the elements of the car, which means that they will not harm the car during operation.
The type of car drive also plays an important role when buying chains. If the machine has a front or rear wheel drive, then the installation of lugs will only be required on the drive axle. In the case of an all-wheel drive car, you need to purchase additional chains, as it is recommended to put them on all four wheels. And for non-driven machines, lugs will not work, because the wheel will not cope with the obstacle, but on the contrary, it will get stuck in the ground even more.
