      Video Transcript for Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains Review - 2005 Chevrolet Malibu

      Today on our 2005 Chevy Malibu, well be test fitting the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, part number PW2016C. Well be using these in conjunction with the Glacier Rubber Adjusters for 16-to-20-inch rims, part number PW99. First well go ahead and take our chains and lay them out. Well make sure that the cross chain hooks are facing up or out away from the tire. Then well go ahead and take the center, lay it up across the top of the tire, evening up the chain from side to side, inside to out as we go down and around the tire. Then well move to the inside.

      Take the cable, pulling it taught, and hooking it in through the other end, locking it into the cable hook. Next well take the excess from the eyelet cable and secure it with the red locking tab. Then well move back to the outside of the tire and once again take the cable end, pulling it taught, feeding it into the cable hook. Then well take the lever, putting tension on the chain, and locking the lever back into the other side onto the cable chain itself. Next well take the excess from the eyelet cable and secure it with the red locking tab.

      And that will complete the install of the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains. For additional tension on our cable tire chains, we can use the Glacier Rubber Adjuster for 16-to-20-inch rims, part number PW99. This adjuster will come with five hooks. The hooks will face out away from the tire. Starting at the center hook, well hook it at the top of the tire and well work around the tire in an even space shape, putting additional tension on the tire chain to keep it in position.

      Now with the drivers side done, well go ahead and repeat the same process on the passengers side. And that will complete our install of the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, part number PW2016C, in conjunction with the Glacier Rubber Adjusters, part number PW99, on our 2005 Chevy Malibu.

      Now I'm ready for old man winter. Chains are heavy and bulky. Cables are the way to go. Not to heavy and they come in a nice nylon bag. Thank You.26771

      • Recommend Snow Chains For My 2000 Nissan Frontier
      • I do have snow tire chains available that will fit your 215/65-15 tire size, but the item you selected, Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, part # PW2016C, will NOT fit your 215/65-15 tire size. Before purchasing snow tire chains, you will want to check with your vehicle owners manual to see if it is acceptable to use snow tire chains. For your 2000 Nissan Frontier, with 215/65-15 tires, the Thule Tire Chains, part # TH01221095, would be a good option. The Thule # TH01221095 chains comes inclu

      • Tire Chain Recommendation for a 2012 Honda Pilot 4WD
      • You should have no problem with the performance of the Glacier Cable Snow Chains, # PW2016C, on your trip, but for superior strength and durability, I would recommend looking at the Pewag Brenta-C 4X4 Tire Chains, # PWXMR80V. The Pewag chains are made of a durable titanium alloy steel that will provide better durability and performance than the low-carbon steel and rubber of the cable style chains. A few things to keep in mind when using snow chains is not to exceed the maximum speed limit a

      • Explanation of Class S Snow Tire Chains and Recommendation of Tire Chains for 2005 Honda Pilot
      • First, you will want to consult the vehicle owners manual for your 2005 Honda Pilot to determine if cables or chains can be used and if so if there are any restrictions or recommendations. We have answered a question before on a Honda Pilot with 235/70-16 tire size and the owners manual said SAE Class S cables only, no chains. SAE Class S tire chains are designed for use on vehicles with restricted wheel well clearance. Certain newer cars, vans and small trucks, especially those with large, a
