Review: Great traction! Easier than chains. Know that you have to take them off on dry pavement. - these were great on a RWD van in snowy ice conditions going up hills. Watched some YT videos and they outperform other socks and chains. Only downside with socks is they fall apart if driven on dry roads. So if you need them to get out of your driveway and house but in town or on the highway is dry, you have to take them off. Also- unclear but may not be accepted by chain control. I knew these things going in and watched reviews. Easier to put on then chains. Surprisingly good grip on icy hard pack. I do think they outperform chains in some conditions but nothing outperforms chains on real ice. Also- did not get to test them in fresh snow.
Review: Not bad at all - 1st things first I want to clarify, I live in the south so we don’t get that much snow. I have some driving experience in snow since I lived in Canada for a bit but that’s it. This weekend I went on a family ski trip up in Boone, NC. There was a really bad winter storm and after having this in the back of my car for a year I finally got the opportunity to test them out. There was about 4-5 inches of snow, the weather was about 22° with winds of up to 20+ mph and dropping so there was ice forming beneath the snow already. I’ll break this down as best as I can in terms of my experience and an unbiased perspective. 1) installation, removal, and fitting: - very easy and straight forward, took me less than 10 minutes. I watched one quick video and was able to do it in little to no time (specifically the ones that were attached to this product here on desertcart). Also there is a tag on the socks that tells you which side goes on the outside of the tire which is the red side. - The package comes with gloves so that was very helpful and a great thing for them to do because with the cold weather and slick wet tires, your definitely going to need them unless you want to be struggling in the cold for more than 15 mins. - the chart for sizing was actually very accurate. For representation I have a 2010 Toyota RAV4. It’s FWD with 4 cylinders and my tires are 225/65R17 101H. The socks went on it very snug without much of a struggle and stayed on my tires without a problem never once having slipped off even with all the sharp turns around Beech Mountain and Sugar Mountain. - I will say it was slightly tough to take off, I would say it took me between 10-15 minutes of me having to pull at the edges constantly to get both of the snow socks loose and off, but granted my fingers were numb from the freezing cold of the 20° ish degrees weather and with winds up to 20+ mph. 2) Performance: - I want to mention once again that I only used two snow socks on my front tires since my car is Front Wheel Drive (FWD) and my back tires were Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires which are graded for snow weather too. - While I was moving my car back and forth to fit the socks on, I noticed that the snow was sticking to the snow socks. These snow socks picked up the snow really well, leaving very noticeable patches of grass exposed. From what I read this is a good sign since the snow that is packed onto the snow socks provides great traction on the snow on the road. I didn’t believe it at first until I started test driving it and noticed a huge difference. - going up the mountain was no problem, the snow socks did what they were supposed to do. They dug into the snow and got me up the mountain even with traffic going slow and even stopping on an incline. - speaking of stopping, going down the mountain with these felt pretty good. Granted I had my car between 2nd and 1st gear trying to keep a balance between my transmission and my brakes to not overload either of them, but the snow socks definitely played there park in making sure I didn’t slide out. - In terms of quality these handled pretty well. After taking them off they were still in pretty good condition so I will definitely be using them again later on. Mind you I drove with these in the winter storm between an hour to two hours so they kept together really well and never slipped off once. I repeat that part again because I was worried about the sizing and with all the sharp turns they would slip off but they did not at all, truth be told the way I put them on is the way the stayed until I pulled them off. - one thing I will mention is that when you get to speeds close to 40mph you will start to feel a bit of a bumping sound/feeling. I concluded that it was the snow packed onto the socks that caused this but regardless if I am not mistaken, the creators of this sock do also state that these are only meant for speeds below 40-45mph so please keep that in mind. In conclusion, these are definitely worth the money for sure and I 100% plan on buying another pair for my back tires or as a backup. Please be safe out there and have fun!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Conquering Winter Roads with Confidence
*by J***H on March 4, 2024*

As someone who frequently braves the winter elements behind the wheel, I'm always on the lookout for reliable traction solutions. This season, I had the opportunity to use the K&K Automotive Snow Socks - Pro Series, and I can confidently say they've impressed me beyond expectations. Here's why they deserve a spot in your winter preparedness arsenal: Effortless Installation: Unlike traditional snow chains, the K&K Snow Socks are incredibly easy to put on. They literally slip over your tires like giant socks, requiring no special tools or mechanical knowledge. This is a game-changer, especially during unexpected snowstorms when fumbling with chains can be frustrating and even dangerous. Remarkable Traction: Don't be fooled by their ease of use; these bad boys deliver on grip. I navigated snowy and icy roads with confidence and control, feeling the socks claw into the slick surface with each turn and brake. They provided significantly improved traction compared to regular tires, ensuring a safer and smoother driving experience. Gentle on Rims: Unlike chains that can damage your wheels, the K&K Snow Socks are made from a soft, durable fabric that won't scratch or scuff your rims. This was a major selling point for me, as I'm particular about maintaining the condition of my car. Surprisingly Smooth Ride: While some traction aids can create a bumpy ride, the K&K Snow Socks surprised me with their relative smoothness. The fabric design seems to absorb some of the road noise and vibrations, resulting in a more comfortable driving experience compared to traditional chains. Compact and Reusable: The K&K Snow Socks come packaged in a compact carrying bag, taking up minimal space in your car's trunk. Additionally, they're reusable, making them a cost-effective long-term solution for winter driving. Overall, the K&K Automotive Snow Socks - Pro Series are a fantastic option for anyone seeking a user-friendly, effective, and gentle solution for winter traction. They offer outstanding grip, are easy to use and store, and provide a surprisingly smooth ride. If you're looking for peace of mind and confidence on winter roads, I highly recommend giving them a try.
