guessing chains reinvented.

one post says auto, rear wheel drive and live in sticks.

could alway try some ballast, couple of hundred weight
of crap, sorry 100s kg.

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:augieplus 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
