GOHHME Snow Chains 165mm–265mm for Cars 🚗
Description:
This set of snow chains from GOHHME equips cars, SUVs and light trucks with enhanced grip for winter roads, combining easy fitting with durable materials to help maintain traction on snowy or icy surfaces. Designed to suit tyre widths between 165 mm and 265 mm, the pack aims to be a practical winter accessory for drivers facing variable conditions.
Key Points
The kit includes ten individual snow chains plus a scraper and a pair of gloves, providing a near-complete solution for preparing a vehicle for cold weather. The chains are made from high-quality nylon, which is gentler on tyre rubber than metal alternatives and resists tearing according to the manufacturer. Each chain features eleven raised traction nodes to increase friction on slippery surfaces, helping reduce skidding and improve directional stability. Installation does not require tools, allowing a single person to fit the chains quickly in roadside situations. Consider that textile chains typically perform differently from steel alternatives in deep snow or ice; they are often quieter and lighter but may wear faster under heavy use.

Benefits
Using textile snow chains reduces the risk of tyre and rim scratches compared with harsher materials, which matters for those who want protection as well as grip. The eleven traction points deliver a clear mechanical advantage on thin layers of snow and compacted ice, offering steadier acceleration and braking in moderate winter conditions. Their lightweight nature keeps storage and handling simple, and the absence of metal links helps avoid vibration and road noise during short distances at low speed. The inclusion of gloves and a scraper means basic clearing and fitting tasks can be handled straight away when conditions deteriorate.
Usage Recommendations
Fit the chains to the driven wheels, following the vehicle manufacturer’s guidance on winter traction aids and speed limits when using tyre chains. Check tension and alignment after a short test drive and re-tighten if necessary. These nylon chains are suitable for temporary use and lower-speed travel on snowy or icy stretches; avoid prolonged use on bare tarmac to reduce wear. Keep an eye on local regulations, as some jurisdictions require specific types of chains or prohibit certain materials. For longer journeys in mountainous areas or for frequent heavy-duty use, a heavier-duty steel chain may be worth considering instead.
