TRACGRABBER Tire Traction Device for Cars & Small SUVs, Set of 4 - Made in the USA, Anti Skid Emergency Tire Straps to Get Unstuck from Snow, Mud, & Sand - Snow Traction Mat or Tire Chain Alternative

On two occasions this winter I had a similar event happen. Both were in minor amounts of snow but snowpacked/icy and very slick. Both were downhill sloped roads with an angle to the road sloping to an outside turn. I was going very slow but slid off the road and onto the grass. Due to the side slope of the hill any movement of the tires uphill or downhill made me slide further into the grass. One was 3 feet from a steep dropoff. I installed the TracGrabber to both front tires and exited the situation easily. They are easy to install and a little more difficult to remove because the velcro holds firmly. I need some tool to reach through the spoke of the wheel to peel back the velcro through the spokes.I'm buying a set for all of my family members this Christmas.

Seem really well made/sturdy, haven't use them yet!

The key here is patience when using these blocks.They are not the same as chains, and will only move you couple of inches per SLOW tire rotation.As the tires rotate, the blocks will move, tightening the straps. Which can make removing them a bear if you don't get the blocks back to the original instal position.I purposely stuck my Dodge 2500 in my yard, and only used rear axle (2wd) to unstuck testing just two of the four blocks. One on each rear drive wheel.Highlights: Easy to install. Easy to clean. Compact storage compared to chains. Easy to remove IF YOU reverse the tire rotation and loosen up the tension. Or, beat them back to the original position.Lowlight: None really, if you have reasonable expectations and follow the instructions. They won't move you along like chains will, and they will tear up leave ruts if you test them in your yard!

Love these they really work good on my equinox front wheel drive just don't put near the valve stem on your tire

I used them already got struck on the lake fishing put them on and drove of the lake
