    • Quality chains, worked very well
Size: SZ447 (Pack of 1) Pattern Name: Tire Chain
The Super Z6 Cable Tire Chain benefits from a lightweight (comparably), compact design, making it convenient to store and handle. Its Z-design ensures a snug fit around a variety of tire sizes, improving traction without less risk of damage to rims. The chains are made from durable steel cables coated in a protective coating to resist corrosion. I found these easy to install on my Jeep Grand Cherokee without needing special tools. They provide reliable grip during winter conditions, enhancing driving confidence on covered or icy roads. However, I did not venture into deep snow or rugged off-road terrain. How to Use: Prepare Your Vehicle: Park on a flat surface. Engage the parking brake. Ensure your tires are cold and free of debris. Unpack and Inspect: Remove the cables from their storage case. Check for any visible damage or defects. (Best done at home before heading to the slopes!) Lay Out the Cables: Spread out the cables on the ground to avoid tangling. Identify the side that will face outward based on the design instructions. Position the Cables: Drape the cable around the inside of the tire, then pull it around so that it is centered. For the Super Z6, the cables are designed to form a "Z" shape when installed correctly. Secure the Cables: Connect the ends of the cables using the provided clips or fasteners. Ensure the cables are snug but not overly tight, allowing some slack for movement. Check Fit and Drive: Turn your vehicle slightly to make sure the cables are properly positioned. Slowly drive forward a short distance, then stop to re-check the fit. Adjust if necessary to prevent any rubbing or loose connections. Use reduced speed and avoid sudden turns or hard braking. ... show more

    • Easy to Use, Dependable Chains for Winter Driving
Size: SZ441 (Pack of 1) Pattern Name: Tire Chain
Easy to Use, Dependable Chains for Winter Driving I’ve used these SCC SZ441 Super Z6 cable tire chains a couple of times now, and I’m impressed with how straightforward they are to install. The design makes it possible to get them on without moving the car, which is a big plus when you’re dealing with snow or ice on the side of the road. The instructions were clear, and with a bit of practice, I was able to get them on quickly. On the road, they performed well—providing solid traction on packed snow and icy patches where regular tires would have slipped. The low-profile design means they fit nicely even in cars with limited clearance, which is important since many vehicles today don’t have much room around the wheel wells. A couple of things to keep in mind: these are cable chains, so while they’re great for light to moderate use, they’re not the same as heavy-duty chains if you’re driving in really extreme conditions all the time. Also, they can make for a slightly rougher ride at lower speeds, which is to be expected. Bottom line: A reliable, easy-to-use option for cars, SUVs, and pickups that need extra traction in winter. Great fit, straightforward install, and dependable performance make these chains a smart addition to the trunk when snow season comes around. ... show more

    • Great, lower profile alternative to traditional chains.
Size: SZ447 (Pack of 1) Pattern Name: Tire Chain
Tire chains come in a dizzying variety of types/brands, and it took me a long time to start figuring out all the various options and which would work best for my application. The problem most people have is that traditional chains can't be used on a LOT of modern cars/trucks with very close space tolerances between the tires and adjacent wheel wells/components. These cable-based "chains" solve that problem for many cars/trucks, and provide the added bonus of working better, and being easier to install/remove than traditional chains. The trick, however, is matching your particular vehicle's actual tires/wheels to a particular manufacturer's sizing scheme. I tried pretty hard to find the "right" size for the P265/70R17 tires on my 2001 Suburban ... even going so far as contacting the actual designer/manufacturer of this product to verify sizing. When I received the set and tried 'em on, however, they were obviously too big. Wah-waaaahhhhh. After some further discussions with the manufacturer's customer service (good guys, by the way ... very helpful), and me e-mailing them a few photos showing the fitment on my actual tires (which were still serviceable, but worn to within about 10k remaining on their normal service life), they recommended that I "downsize" to a smaller size (SZ441). That size "fit" but was a bit too tight/hard to install, so I ended up getting new tires, returning the smaller size, and re-ordering the original size (SZ447), which then fit properly. It was this experience that taught me the actual, physical dimensions of auto/truck tires can vary up to 10 to 15%, or even more, from the standard measurements/size they're sold under. The only measurement that IS reliable is the last number shown on the sidewall ... rim diameter ... for obvious reasons. Any failure to properly match this part of the tire to the actual rim it's being mounted on could result in a catastrophic failure; possible injury/death, and thus ... lawsuits. Every other measurement is pretty much, e.g., "law west of the Pecos." With all that said, I really like the design of these things. They're far easier to install and remove than you might think from looking at some of these reviews, but installing them is every bit as dirty a job as everyone says. You have to get low enough to the ground to reach all the way around the bottom of the tire and attach the inner cable, and the tread surface of the tire WILL be slopping all over your forearms. Same with the top (there are two connection points on the inner cable, just one on the outer cable), but the inner/top connector is easier to reach, and thus, not as dirty. While you CAN put these things on without moving your vehicle, I recommend you do yourself a favor and deviate from the manufacturer's instructions a little bit ... spread them out in front of your wheels (making sure you've oriented them so that the "tire side" stamped on one side of the cable retainers ends up ON the "tire side"), connect the inner/bottom cable connector (the one that doesn't have a corresponding connector on the outer side), and then roll the car forward until that section of the cable is dead center/bottom. Then you don't have to reach around the bottom of your tire to attach this connector "blind," and only have to reach over the top of the tire to pull the loose ends of the inner cable upward and connect it at the top. Hook up the outer/top connector, put on your tensioner band/clips, and you're good to go. The "rings" on the cross-members aren't really "rings," but more like a series of short (e.g., half-inch) heavy duty springs threaded onto the underlying cross-member cable (like the necklaces kids make out of pasta). Assuming you've gotten a properly-fitting size for your tires; you've installed and used them as instructed; there are no over-crimping or other assembly defects present in the particular set you receive, and you make a point of keeping the chains clean and properly lubricated between uses, I see no reason these shouldn't last many years. You may end up doing a little "trial and error" finding the right size for your particular car/tires, but once you do, you'll like the end result, and feel a lot more confident about being able to get to your destination safely over snow/ice road conditions. ... show more

Size: SZ135 (Pack of 1) Pattern Name: Tire Chain
I am not a planner. I’m more of a “that sounds fine, what could possibly go wrong?” traveler. My husband, however, prepares for trips like we’re crossing the Oregon Trail. Before our Spring Break trip to Bryce Canyon, he insisted we buy Security Chain Company Super Z6 tire chains “just in case.” I rolled my eyes so hard I almost saw my own brain. Well. Nature humbled me REAL fast. We got caught in a TWO FOOT snowstorm on a mountain road, and suddenly my husband was out there calmly putting on these chains like the survival expert he always believed he was. Meanwhile, I was inside the car Googling “how long can people survive in a snowbank.” These chains absolutely saved us. Without them, we would have been stranded on the side of the mountain questioning every life decision that led us there. Instead, the Super Z6 chains got us safely through snow that looked like a scene from a disaster movie. So yes, my husband was right. Again. The chains worked perfectly, were surprisingly easy to put on, and officially earned a permanent spot in our car. I still refuse to admit he over-plans… but let’s just say I’m no longer mocking the emergency snack bin. ... show more

    • Drove through the worst, never lost control
Size: SZ429 (Pack of 1) Pattern Name: Tire Chain
Never lived in climate where I needed chains until recently. I now live in Washington state and decided to take a mini vacation to Leavenworth, WA just prior to Christmas. Had to pass through Snoqualmie pass and one other lesser pass. I chose these chains solely based off reviews, primarily them being better than traditional chains and also ease of installation. I received the chains in 2 days (I love Prime) and did a dry run on our FWD SUV. The first tire took 10 minutes following the directions. Once I understood the sequence, the second tire took under 2 minutes. I packed everything back up into the convenient carry case and off into the Cascades we went. Conveniently, a massive winter storm just dropped 18 inches of snow across Snoqualmie Pass 2 days prior to us going there, and it was still snowing when we went. In the snow/slush on the side of the road, I was able to put these chains on without getting dirty or wet by only wearing gloves. Even more important, i had both wheels done in under 2 minutes per wheel. Performance wise, I could only go <30 MPH but I never lost traction. Vibration from the chains is minimized by sustaining a 25ish MPH speed, but at slow speed the vibration is brutal. Either way, having complete control over austere terrain was more than comforting. The chains gripped the surface like it owed them money. I felt in control, and not once did I lose control. On the return route, another massive winter storm dropped even more snow and this time it was less plowed and a lot more accumlation on the roadway. Again, I got the chains on in under 4 minutes and I was going up and down the pass without once losing control. They aren't miracle workers, but if you drive as you're supposed to in inclement weather you will not lose control of your vehicle. Both times when I traversed the pass, I stopped the vehicle, took 15 seconds to disconnect the 3 connectors, laid the chains out, backed up, and stacked and rolled both chains in under 5 minutes. I put them back in the bag and was off on my way. Once home, per instructions I took the chains out and gave them a heavy coating of WD-40 and let them dry out including the bag (rivets in the bag already started rusting after this one trip). The chains have thousands of teeth, and I drove primarily on slush with the chains and only lost a handful of teeth. They will certainly last a while and I only recommend buying an additional set of rubber tensioners as they seem to be the most likely point of failure. I did order a second set as the chains are useless without them and they easily fit in the chain storage bag. Simple review is below: Pro: -Once the sequence is understood, the chains are incredibly easy to put on. I never watched the video and just looked at the included instructions for a few minutes. -Can't compare traction ability to traditional chains, but I never lost control. You can see the deep grooves the chains make in snow and ice though. They grip exceptionally well. -Both chains roll up neatly into an easily transported package and the included carrying bag is sized appropriately where it is easy to put the chains back in plus extra tensioners if desired. Cons: -They do cost more than traditional chains, but after watching dozens of others fight with traditional chains while being snowed on the cost difference is justified. What took others 10 minutes took me half the time -- and I never got dirty (so long as you wear gloves). -The tensioner is a solid rubber ring with 6 plastic clips. As previously discussed, I feel this to be the single point of failure for the whole system. Rubber loses elasticity in the cold, and most people dont use chains in warm weather. During extended wear I could imagine the rubber hardening and eventually snapping from the pressure. Fortunately, additional tensioner packs are available and they fit in the carrying case included with these chains. TL;DR: These chains are absolutely worth the additional price. They grip exceptionally well and they are simple to put on and remove. ... show more

    • Cable came off and disappeared while driving
Size: SZ451 (Pack of 1) Pattern Name: Tire Chain
When I got up the mountain, it wasn't snowing but I carried these cables because the next 2 days was going to see snow. Next morning, I put them on to get to the ski lift which is about 5 miles or so. Installation was very easy to do. I did it inside the garage so it was dry. Because it was my first time putting it on a RWD on back wheels, I was semi concerned. But no worries at all. Traction was great. There was a moment when I was braking that the car needed more space...guess it was partially my fault for not braking sooner. Went and came back fine. Same thing for the 2nd day. No issues. When I was coming back from snowboarding though, because of the accumulation of alot of snow, while the car backed up fine, it got stuck going forward. I just reversed my way out of it. Third day, I was on my way out of town. No snow falling, but all the roads had snow and some areas were icy. As soon as I got out and saw wet ground (no snow) I stopped to take off the cables. This was more challenging then putting them on just due to finding the points of attachment. But it was still easy to do. Moving onto the 2nd tire... It was already off... And gone. Where did it go? Not sure... It came off in the middle of the drive. I don't know why. Maybe it was more loose than I was expecting?! Now I only have cables for 1 tire after my 1st use... Suggestion: Carry a plastic bag so you can keep the original carry bag a bit cleaner. ... show more

Update . After using and loosing a chain almost getting stuck theh first time after 100 yards in my drive I was pleased I did not have trouble putting that one back on ( did not pull the wheel ) and it did stay on the second time . I even put my snowsport plow on and plowed my drive of 5 inches of powdered snow including on the grass as the plow had a 4 inch rubber lift that will not damage turf . I am now very happy and raised it from 2 to 5 stars as well as will purchase another rubber band incase that happens again . Might consider a another set of chains if I get by until they go on sale in summer usually for around $75 a par . I feel they were worth every bit of the $100 I paid now . Wish I had them last Sunday instead of getting stuck in my drive and using a $150 tow . I went right through the same ground with the plow on today and 8 inches of snow there . Below is my non edited first review after the third day of ownership . I received my chain set . On the package it says it fits over 10 different size tires . It actually fits 2 of my 3 vehicles though none of them well . I do not like this tightening system at all . I didn't get 100 ft the first time I put them on before one side came off and I had to take the wheels off to do that and being disabled it took a long time and w . For me paying more money and buying real chains seems to be a better option . I will say it pulled well with only one on . Glad I noticed it quick and didn't get into a bad spot and loose the other one . I was just driving around my circle drive in 3-5 inches of new powder snow . But was headed for a area that had 8 inches next . I had to be towed out of their a few days earlier prompting this purchase .The plastic clips are put on a rubber band to keep things tight . They are less prone to scratching a wheel or hubcap but they come undone too easy and or break in severe cold . You have no warning and if your diving on a main road you have little chance of back tracking and finding the chain as their still heavy and sink in any snow . I found mine by dumb luck while walking to the mail box . Now when their both on you will be amazed at the difference . I had gone up a hill with 8 inches of snow and no wheel spin I couldn't even go through on flat ground before . I am debating whether to return them now . I will try one more time and maybe tie a string around the rubber band so they can't come off but then they would beat the hell out of the fender if they did . At $100 a set I can't afford to lose a set every 100 yards . They weren't impossible to get on but the problem was getting them equidistant around the wheel which is why I removed he wheel so I could work things around so the metal clips were not on the rims . On my tires the plastics were not near anything . I would be better off with metal fasteners that hooked or enclosed the rubber band so they couldn't toss the chains if they came loose . The product needs more development . I have had them 5 days and through 14 inches of snow . e ... show more

Size: SZ429 (Pack of 1) Pattern Name: Tire Chain
Review Image by mGONZO2u
Vehicle and tire size: 2015 Honda CR-V Touring with P225/60R18 tires (stock size tire on the Touring model). NOTE II: Be sure to FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS and use some sort of WD40 type product to spray down the used and dried snow cables to minimize rust. Duh! NOTE: This Amazon website does NOT correctly ID tire cable size (SZ429) as a fit for my vehicle. However, after speaking to Steve at Security Chain Co. (SCC) for the best fit, he confirmed that the SZ429 model was the right one if I wanted low profile snow cables. His verbal matched my findings through the provided SCC tire fitment guide pdf link found within every SCC listed snow chain/cables offering here on Amazon. I took his confirming word, ordered on a Wednesday morning for a Friday delivery using Prime 2 day shipping. Item arrived on time and off we went Friday night in our (relatively) new Honda CRV to Sequoia NP where up to 6 inches of a snow was expected the next day. I own and use SCC snow cables on my '04 Dodge Durango SLT so I know how much easier these cables are to put on versus standard snow chains that I used to battle with in my younger days on many different tire sizes. This new set didn't dissapoint on use #1 that covered about 100 miles of snow/ice covered national park paved roads and not so paved back roads. They held up just fine, as expected from SCC, without any of the negative things that other reviewers claimed went wrong with their SCC purchase. Incorrect cable size purchase and/or installation error is what I gather affected negative opinions the most. The installation directions could have been titled, "Snow cable installation for Dummies/Idiots" it was so straight forward. The chains were installed in about 10 minutes total on a flat, icy parking lot surface. The 2 provided rubber tensioners were just as idiot installation proof as well. Dora asks, "Can you follow picture instructions? You did it!" I'll be honest in stating that I did not read the cable removal instructions but that did not hinder my reverse installation process a whole lot as the cables were off in about 10 minutes (will be maybe 5 minutes next time after I read how to formally remove them). The cables came in a blue nylon bag with the added bonus of a purposeful long handled window scraper (use it to reach under and around the tires to pull the cable ends to you and of course to clear snow from your windows), clear plastic disposable gloves to assist with installation (I use mechanic gloves), the aforementioned two rubber tensioners and the clear instructions. I don't see the nylon bag holding up long but it's a good starter. I generally just carry the cables in sturdy reusable cloth grocery bags. Easy in, easy out instead of time wasting pack to fit in the mfg bag. I really just posted my feedback so others with my tire size know that SZ429 is a match because I could not find a confirmation here without calling SCC directly. Happy, safe snow/ice travels to all while wearing these easy to use snow cables. P.S. I was traveling in that inclimate weather with my wife, daughter and a niece (both young teens), so my trust in another SCC product used to keep the most precious cargo safe was rewarded with a safe round trip. Thank you SCC! ... show more
