I don't think anybody on here would want them, if their 4 wheel drive is working.
You could try the BMW site, for X3 and X5 owners though.

Will be great for them to have traction in the snow.

Only an idiot selling his 4x4 just before the winter might consider them.

Have you asked Ryan?

Ryan, I told you we wouldn't have a dig at you because you own a Volvo, more a dig that you don't own a 4x4

I do remember one winter a few years ago, I was on a snow bound lane in my 2 wheel drive van, not stuck, just checking a water leak.
Any way, I heard this bloody racket of a noise coming along the lane, when I looked around the van, I was greeted with a Porsche cayenne being driven slowly by a woman and all 4 wheels had chains on

Chains will work on ice. No tyres will unless they are studed

I have no problems in my Terry when on ice (no studs) and winter tyres are just fine too.
All depends on how you put the power down and how you drive.

Shame you don't have any in 155/70 r13 or I'd of had a set

Too expensive so has to go, not practical for me either, and want somthing thaty handles nicer and less like a wallowing pig, the Volvo's have a lowwer centre of grafity and are bigger too, need the space , also I'll have no problem with the snow in the Hyundai,, thin tries will cut through the snow, also got the weight over the front so will be good enough for any snow we get. Will be getting chains for it, but know where I'll be able to get offroad rally tires for it When auto-testing

Ice Road Truckers,drive mostly without chains.They only use them for hills.

Chains Probably aid braking on the front
