Form meets function in the K-Summit - Thule's latest in convenience and safety for snow chains. In three easy steps, you will have the chains attached and ready to go. You will find that it is just as easy to remove them. Unlike typical snow chains, there are no attachments to be made behind the tire. Simply place two of the chains traction plates on top of the tire, then fasten the K-Summit to the wheel's lug nut or bolt. Lastly, activate the chain's ratcheting mechanism. Now you are ready to roll. As you drive away, K-Summit adjusts to conform to the tire perfectly. Tension springs adjust within the chain for a precise fit, even on tires with different degrees of wear. After use, fold up the tire chains for storage in the compact carrying case provided.
The K-Summit is the most exclusive and user-friendly external snow chain. The chain sits on the treads of the tire which not only prevents scratches to your wheels, but also requires no clearance on the inside of the tire. Traction plates with metal studs and the d-shaped chain links provide superior traction while also providing a high level of driving comfort.
How to install the snow chain:
- Lay 2 of the chains traction plates on top of the tire
- Attach chain to 1 wheel nut
- Activate the ratchet which tightens as you drive away
