
tire, as recommended by the traction device
manufacturer.
No other tire sizes are recommended for use

with a tire chain or traction device.
Install on rear tires only.

cause unpredictable handling. You could lose
control and have a collision.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to your vehicle or tires,

Because of restricted traction device clear-

ance between tires and other suspension
components, it is important that only trac-

occurs that could indicate device breakage.
