This is my bro’s 2007 Honda Ridgeline with Chains on the front climbing back up a snow hill (not a road) that he went down once and turned around. Not a big deal but there was over a foot of snow (16″ measured) on the ground and we own a 1500 Dodge, Titan, 250 Ford and I wouldn’t have even attempted this. Just goes to show you that the Ridgeline has an excellent 4-wheel drive system. And chains on the front instead of the rear makes all the difference.

Today we are going to show you part number TH00204102 from Thule. This is one of their tire chains, and this is their CS10 model. As you can see here, it comes with a carrying case, and you can carry both chains. Off to the right-hand side is a pair of gloves to help keep your mitts dry while you install the snow chains. Also, there is a set of extra repair links that come with. And then also, off to the left of that is a handle, and that is part of the quick-release system, which is one of the benefits of this actual part number here. It makes it really easy to disconnect the chain and take it off of the vehicle. And finally there is a kneeling mat so when you kneel down of course you will not get your knees wet. It has a patented self-centering and self-tensioning system. The tensioning system actually centers the chain on the tire as you drive. The pattern on the chain is asymmetrical, diamond-pattern chain with icebreaker reinforcements. And this will not affect anything like anti-lock braking systems and electronic stability control systems. And next we will go ahead and install this chain and show you how it works and how it looks.
Run the blue part around the bottom side of the tire and pull it behind the back and hook them together at the top of the tire. And the blue cable will hide behind the tire and this will stay on top to give you some reference. And pull out the rest of your chain. And this red hook goes to these red chain loops here, just like that. And then your tensioning device goes through here through this buckle. And pull it tight, and then it hooks up to this strap right here. And with that, the chains are installed.
To release everything, undo the tensioner, undo your hook here. And this is your quick-release for the blue cable in the back. You hook it up, give it a good pull, and it comes right apart. And then part of this chain is caught underneath the tire. You have just got to roll it one way or the other to get your chain loose. And there you have it for part number TH00204102 from Thule. This is one of their tire chains, their CS10 model.

If you live in an area where snow and ice are a concern, you only had a few options. With traditional tire chains, installation difficulties, poor ride quality, and potential damage to the wheels and tires made them impractical. Other options such as cables shared those problems. Snow tires are expensive and not suitable for driving after winter.
Now there is a new solution. These textile tire chains, or tire socks, offer a solution that does no damage to wheels or tires and are easy to install. The technology lies in removing excess water between your tires and snow and increasing the contact surface. Because some states will not allow traditional chains within certain months, be prepared with these ISSE Snow Socks. Easily machine washable to remove soiling from use.
Does no damage to pavement or driveways. To travel safely, it is recommended not to drive over 30 mph with snow chains. This is a constant factor between all traditional types of snow chains and the ISSE Snow Socks.
*Please confirm tire size before ordering

installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today we are going to show you part number TH01571250 from Thule. This is Thules XB16 tire chains. As shown here, the tire chains come in a nice carrying box. Also the kit comes with a pair of gloves to help keep your mitts dry while you are installing the chains. It even comes with a couple of extra repair links. And finally it comes with a little kneeling mat to keep your knees from getting wet while you are kneeling in the snow. These tire chains use unique, color-coded connection points to ease installation. Basically you are just matching color for color to put everything together. This is also compatible with anti-lock braking and electronic stability control systems on some of the newer cars and trucks. Actually this set is specially made for commercial vehicles, RVs and for off-road adventures, too. Construction is hardened manganese nickel alloy steel. The chain link diameter is about 16 millimeters and it has internal clearance required to operate within the fender well of about 16 millimeters too. This does come complete with a 1-year warranty. Now we will go ahead and show you how it works and show you a typical installation.
Get your chain out and go ahead and stretch it out and get it as untangled as best you can. What you want to do is take this blue cable and the chain and wrap it behind the tire first. Just leave it on the ground and push it around the bottom of the tire. You want to hook these two ends together but you want to do it on top of the tire. And this blue part of the chain stays on the back side of the tire. And then pull your chains out and make sure you have got this part of the chain, too. And next you want to tie the two red ends together. And then this long chain with the rubber strap goes to this buckle back here. And then pull it tight. Then catch it with this red hook here, run it through this clip, and then take your rubber end of the shock and get as close to the hook up here as best as possible. All right, and with that the chains are installed.
To remove the tire chains, simply reverse the same procedure. Disconnect the rubber strap, take off the chain. And when removing the chains, make sure red hook to the little red loop is on top of the tire. Once you get it unhooked from behind with the blue cable, you can lay it down. It might get caught underneath the tire. Just back up a little bit and then the chain is completely off. And there you have it for part number TH01571250 from Thule.
