AutoSock AS_HP_685E Winter Traction Aid Size HP 685 E

I keep Autosocks in all my cars having first used a pair in the German Alps years ago which got me out of a spot of bother. Easy to put on and take off they provide an astonishing level of grip and whilst they are not for prolonged use they will get you going and keep you moving. Bung them in the washing machine after use and they will come up as good as new and be ready till the next time. Excellent for emergencies, makes putting on snow chains almost redundant and importantly will not damage your expensive wheels or body work. I have seen and used several of the look-a-like ones on fleet cars but Autosocks are the ones I have bought for my own use. Highly recommended as long as you appreciate that they have a finite life and distance/speed limitations. But if you have ever fitted snow chains in the dry on a practise run and cursed, imagine how difficult they are to fit when it is a blizzard and your stuck in a dangerous position and they scratch your alloys. As they say in Yorkshire, These'll Do....and they do.

Bought for a ski trip, used to drive back down the mountain in ~10cm fresh snow for 5-6km. Easy to fit, smoother ride than traditional chains, lower price and work just as well in conditions we were in. Rinsed through, dried and ready for next year. 6 stars.

Was struggling to get car out in snow, put these socks on and straight up. Had to remember to remove them as I didn’t want to speed off and drive on normal roads with them on. Great purchase!

I bought these in 2021, however I have used the same model (maybe not same size) in my RX8 back in 2004+. The performance is amazing and the handles to the sides make it easy to handle the "socks". I would certainly recommend.

They do actually self centre! I got stuck going up a hill with snow tyres on, put these on in less than 5 mins and pulled away. Excellent. Easy to use and make a real difference.

Thanks a lot
