Amazing value
These are easy to use, not too heavy and cumbersome. I live in WA State where we don't usually get a lot of heavy snow, but when we do, these are great to have! I just keep them in my car. Simple to put on and they fit a variety of tire sizes with adjustable notches.

Cables broke, poor quality.
I used these for the first time on a trip to Lake Tahoe in Jan 2017. They broke halfway through the trip and ruined my mag wheel finish and paint around my wheel well and even higher. It's going to cost over $1500 to repair wheel and paint. I can only post two photos, but there's more damage. My paint was perfect before the trip. I never thought there were low quality chains or cables (my car can only use cables). I would have thought they would have been safety tested. I'm going to file a claim for the repairs!

    Works well on ice - fairly simple installation.
    We bought these cables to allow us to visit Yosemite during the winter. We used them to drive up to Badger Pass and they worked well on a mix or ice and tarmac. Without these cables I suspect we would never have made it up the hill. Installation needs a little care but I suspect they are easier to use than classic chains. In summary, glad I bought them. Not probably as effective as full chains in really poor ice/snow conditions, but much better than regular tires alone.

    Winter item to have
    They worked great, I moved around in the ice/thick snow great and I hate driving in the snow. Price was great.

    Get better quality ones
    They aren't the best of quality but had no choice the Walmart by my house only had these in stock but I would buy better ones that you can hook and also those that come with the tension cables since you should use those

    As expected
    Worked as expected. Got my prius up a snowy, back drive on a ski trip to West Virginia. I can't attest to the durability, as I live in Alabama and only used them for a couple of days. I did find that turning off traction control seemed to help with performance.

    Inexpensive, work great, easy to use.
    I'll admit, I bought these the same night I put 240 lbs of sand in the back of my little Mazda pickup -- it's hard to tell which did more good. I've been using both for weeks now, in a winter worse than any we've seen in Boise in 30 years. I don't doubt the tire cables have done their share in keeping me on the roads. Also, as easy to use as anything like this could be. Recommended.

    Worked fine until they broke.
    Can't really complain about the chains, they worked fine for a good number of miles. However, a cross piece did catch on a metal shank and break during our drive, so I can't recommend them absolutely.

    Value for money, good cables
    Peerless cables are good cables that could be put on tire easily. The cables come at a very reasonable price compared to other cables in the market

    Did the JOB!
    Overall, well worth the purchase price. Upon initial inspection, they did look very complicated. The instructions were pictorial and I was overthinking how to put them on. My friend, upon looking at the instructions carefully, suggested to follow the instructions! Go figure! When approached using the pictorial instructions the chains (with self tighteners went on surprisingly easily and very quickly! As to performance, I put them on 16 inch 10 ply truck tires.... I was no longer stuck anywhere! I live off road in a snowy region and have them on to drive in to my home and barns. Now here is the good part.... with the built in self tighteners.... it is absolutely simple to take them off and reapply when you need to go off road again!. As with any tire chain system the literature says to keep it under 30 miles per hour. Which I have on paved roads. Even a grandmother can do it! It takes less than three minutes to put them on now. LOL my hands don't even get cold. SIMPLE! Thank You Walmart!
