Also, you void the warranty on your truck if you use chains. Sure.... they'd have to catch you I suppose.

Thank you for the "void the warranty" post which seems to be requires in all threads.

I 'aint gonna read any of those posts above, too long winded. We're gonna make this a free f'ing country again. You can run chains 'till they pry them from your fingers.

I think gonna buy these chains, if you're interested in checking them out. If not, then have a good day.

Yes. Those are within the recommendations and guidelines.

There is almost nothing you can do to "void the warranty"

If the chains damage your vehicle, the damage will not be covered by the warranty but the warranty will not be voided.

They maybe meant "tire warranty".

But isn't that like really short anyways?

So, did you get the Alpha Trax? If so, how do you like the fit and performance?

I have not, but thanks for the reminder. Snow tires are installed but it's been warm. With the snow tires, I'll only need the alpha trax for a major storm. Doesn't happen every year but when you need them, you need them. This could be the year, it's snowing right now.

I went ahead and got the AlphaTrax. I had a couple questions and their customer service was excellent. They fit well, are easy to install and weigh less than any other chains/cables I've used. Just hope they perform well, if/when needed. I'll post to this thread once I actually use them in the snow.

Nice, I also bought the alpha trax after you asked. With the snow tires and emergency chains, the Maverick Hybrid cannot be stopped! Just need a whopper El Nino storm...

Quick update on the Alpha Trax tire chains. Even with all the snow I dealt with up in the mountains, I never had to use chains. My 23 XL Hybrid did just fine in moderate snow conditions with the factory tires and sensible driving. I almost put the Alpha Trax on once, just to see how they ran, but decided to stay warm and dry in my truck instead.
