The laws regarding the use of tire chains (also known as snow chains) vary in different provinces. Some provinces will allow drivers to use them in certain snowy conditions during specific months of the year, while other provinces and territories have no regulations requiring or prohibiting the use of wheel chains. Before purchasing, review the laws and regulations on tire chain use in your province.
Do you need tire chains for all four tires?
It is much safer and easier to control if your vehicle has tire chains on all four tires. You will also have optimum traction when driving in the snow.
How do I know what size tire chains to buy?
It’s important to have properly fitted snow chains to ensure safe driving, which is why Canadian Tire makes it easier for you to shop online for snow chains for your car or light truck. Simply enter your vehicle’s information and you will be given a customized list of results that best fits your ride.
Do I need two or four snow chains?
In many conditions, two snow chains will provide sufficient traction. However, you will get the best traction with four. Every vehicle is different, so it’s important to review your vehicle’s manual for any recommendations.
When should you carry snow chains?
Snow chains and other traction aids are used during extreme weather conditions when the road has a layer of ice or snow. However, some provinces regulate what months you are permitted to use snow chains for your car.
