You asked "How much snow?" - Chains

I had looked here for advice on snow chains. Heard a lot about X3 traction.

Someone in Canada said, 'Chains? How much snow can you be talking about?'

The pictures say it all.

On the ice the X3 was flawless . . . it was hard to get it to slide. But in the deeper snow, the car just seemed bogged down. The tires had zero grip, and there wasn't the power to wheels needed to charge anywhere. If one wheel started spinning, the other didn't turn at all.

Once the chains were on I was good to go. But I will be careful when charging the deep stuff with these tires.
