Prevents dangerous skidding and improves tire grip in snow and ice emergencies
When every second counts, Vehemo snow chains keep you on the road. Heavy-duty rubber traction pads bite into snow and ice, giving you the control you need to arrive safely.
Engineered for real winter grip
- Twin rubber grip pads per chain
Two textured rubber blocks double the contact surface. They bite hard into packed snow and glaze ice, while the rubber compound cushions your wheel — zero rim damage.
- Heavy‑duty ratchet metal buckles
No flimsy plastic clips. The metal ratchet gives a crisp, audible click and holds your setting through every acceleration, brake and corner. Once locked, it stays locked.
- Adjustable, secure fit for any car
The wide nylon strap extends to fit most sedan, SUV and light‑truck tires. Pull the tail to tighten in seconds, even with frozen hands. An extra‑tall sidewall? No problem.
The numbers that matter
- 2xrubber traction blocks per chain
- metalratchet buckles, zero‑slip hold
- widehigh‑visibility orange nylon webbing
- adjustablefits most car and SUV tires
From trunk to tire in under 5 minutes
- 1Position the pad
Lay the chain flat with the rubber side down, directly in front of the drive wheel.
- 2Drive onto the pad
Slowly roll the vehicle forward until the tire sits squarely on top of the rubber block.
- 3Lace the strap
Bring the orange nylon strap over the top of the tire and thread it through the metal ratchet buckle.
- 4Tighten & lock
Pull the tail until snug, then pump the ratchet handle until you hear a firm click. Tuck the loose end behind the strap.
- 5Double-check
Drive 30 feet, stop, and re-tension if needed. Rubber pads should be centered and flat against the tread.

From white‑knuckle drives to winter calm

The silent slide
One patch of black ice. One unresponsive steering wheel. Traditional chains are heavy, noisy and chew up your rims. You need a better answer.

The arrival that matters
Now every trip ends with you pulling safely into your driveway. Through snowdrifts, down icy passes, Vehemo chains give you the one thing no storm can take — confidence.
Keep them storm‑ready
- Rinse and dry
After use, hose off mud and salt. Let the nylon and rubber air dry completely before storing.
- Inspect metal
Check ratchet teeth for rust or debris. A drop of light oil on the hinge every spring keeps it smooth.
- Strap check
Look for cuts or fraying on the orange webbing. If you see more than 10% of the fibers gone, replace the pair.
- Store smart
Keep in a breathable bag in your trunk, away from sharp tools. Avoid crushing the rubber pads.

Questions and answers
No. The rubber traction pads sit between the strap and your rim, so there’s no metal‑to‑rim contact. You get the grip of chains without the gouges.
The adjustable nylon strap accommodates most standard car, SUV and light‑truck tires. They won’t fit extreme low‑profile rubber or very wide off‑road tires — check your sidewall clearance if you’re unsure.
No tools needed. Lay the chain flat, drive onto the rubber pad, pull the strap tight and click the ratchet. With gloved hands it takes about two minutes per wheel once you know the motion.
The rubber blocks and nylon webbing are built for multiple seasons. Inspect the metal buckles and strap stitching before each winter — with proper care they’ll easily serve you for years.
Premium materials cost more up front, but they protect your wheels, need no tools, and go on faster. Over three seasons, the cost per use is pennies — far less than a tow or a fender repair.
No. Chains are for snow and ice only. On dry pavement the rubber blocks will wear quickly and the ride will be rough. Remove them as soon as roads clear.
