Snowchains for a Defender.

Snowpack · Nov 7, 2014

Hello all, I would like some advice concerning the use of snowchains for my TD5. What make, type and link size should I use. Is it necessary to use them on the front, or rear, if only using a pair? Or, is it really better to have a set of four? My TD5 is using 'General Grabber TR' tyres, and the snowchains would be for use in the French Alps or the Pyrenees, where it is obligatory to have them above a certain height. Any general advice on this topic would also be welcome. Many thanks.

I have some snow wraps for my car and whilst I think it is a grey area whether they are legal in France they were amazing when it snowed a couple of years ago. They are miles easier to fit on than the chains.
