I live in Southern California which means most of you will probably laugh at the idea I even know what inclimate weather looks like, but I swear I saw it once. In any event the kids like trips to the snow and the local mountains get their share. California has chain laws so depending where I’m at I may be required to have chains with me/installed, even if I was running four snow rated tires.
Having said that the factory/dealer snow traction option was simply ridiculous at something like $700 a set. (Again, it’s SoCal so the investment just isn’t worth it) but I found a set of Leclede Alpine Sport snow chains (#2326) which will fit my Nitto 265/50R20s. (On a happy note the Leclede rep on the phone kind of laughed after I told her these were for a LR4. “Well, you won’t really need them driving that but California has chain laws so I suppose...”)
Does anybody here have experience running this combo or even just the Leclede chains? Any advice for using snow chains on the LR4?
