Question:
Did have one follow up question, I'm also looking at the Thule XG12 Pro line, would you say they perform better than the XB16 line? My main use of these will be to get up a steep driveway which is often snow on top of a layer of thick ice, looks like the XG12 has the double traction plates which the XB16 doesn't have?
