Hyundai has presented a new wheel and tire design that incorporates built-in snow chains that deploy and retract at the push of a button, potentially putting an end to the fiddly, freezing process of wrapping and removing traditional snow chains.
Hyundai unveils car tires with built-in, push-button snow chains::undefined
Yea, if you frequently need chains, but not all the time (say for ice), there’s the spider style. It uses a hub that bolts onto your lugnuts, and the gripper is like a hubcap that latches into the hub putting plastic fingers with studs over the tires.
Then there’s the mash material type - the tire sock. Postal service delivery vehicles use them in town. They don’t damage the road. Pretty easy to put on, easy to stow.
Maybe for large commercial vehicles, but I don’t want my little sedan rattling around like Jacob Marley after the roads have been cleared.
