Snow chains
I've got stock 16" rims on my car and I want to fit snow chains. Will they scratch my rims up, or can I get special ones for cars that have low profile tyres. Has anyone tried?

so you`ll never know what pleasure we get from scraping hard packed snow and ice off our windscreen and lights at 7am and -10 celcius before we go skating to work in the morning in a f**king blizzard!!!

Might be cheaper to buy a cheap set of second hand rims and new tyres or even second hand tyres
i wouldnt risk the amount of damage it could cause to the rims and underith the car ive got the BG astina with standard 7 spoke 14 inchh rims with low profile tyres well they are low profile but well still fairly big ive got a set of chains for it too and the plastic bits round the side of the chains dosent scratch the rims |

buy some chaser rims or sumting if your worried, but it would probably be just fine in the end
