Good idea but I don't think they would fit very well on a T2 etc which have FWH as the centre of the wheel sticks out unlike a car
 plus if you go from a snow covered road onto tarmac for a short stretch then back onto snow I think they would wear quiet quickly unlike chains

can't see them lasting long if the wheel spins on something sharp, and not exactly cheap
