And rough on the pavement

• s1artibartfast 4y ago
  Doesn't seem rougher than normal chains
  • rtkwe 4y ago
    Maybe slightly as the chain is slung under the tire so it's travelling faster than it would otherwise just being mounted onto the tire?

      The chain gets compressed between the tire and the ground. It can’t really have a much different speed than the tire itself.

        I was thinking about the initial swing in.

  Possibly the opposite if they can be dis-engaged easily on sections without snow, where drivers would otherwise keep chains on

    I live in Minnesota which gets plenty of snow, and chains are banned on public roads.
