Snow Gecko Snow Socks:  Manufactured by Autosock - the famed snow sock originators.

As Easy as 1-2-3 Check out the video at http://www.snowgecko.com/mounting.html

Great for smaller vans, and for towing with many sizes to fit popular tow-cars - unfortunately though no large sizes yet for modern motorhomes with their big '75' profile tyres.

SnowGecko is a newly developed tyre cover that replaces chains in many circumstances by increasing tyre-to-road friction when driving on icy or snowy roads. TUV approved and now approved for use in France wherever the 'chains are obligatory' sign is displayed - and the packaging carries the appropriate approval in French to prove it!  Fantastic alternative to chains being lightweight, easy to store and very easy to put on.

• Perfect temporary winter aid for vehicles

• Approved by TÜV SÜD and leading car manufacturers

• Certified as a Snow Chain equivalent in more and more
  countries - including France already.

• Easy and fast to fit and remove, even in cold and difficult weather

• Lightweight and easy to store

• Comfortable while driving – does not cause noise nor vibrations

• Self-centring - makes life even easier

Reusable and machine washable

• Recyclable and environmental friendly

Usable with alloy rims - even when metal chains are not allowed!

• No damage to rims

Works on all vehicles with low clearance between tyre and car body

• Compatible with and Improves electronic safety systems (ABS, ESP)

• All products are covered by an adequate liability insurance

Based on the renowned AutoSock technology, the Snow-Gecko has a specially designed surface pattern that makes the total contact area exposed to dry friction as large as possible both under dry and wet snow or ice conditions.  Hairs between and at the contact areas in order to increase the totally exposed contact area to friction. The combination of surface pattern, strength and elasticity makes contact sufficiently sticky under hard snow or ice conditions.

In Use - As Easy as 1-2-3 Check out the video at http://www.snowgecko.com/mounting.html

It could hardly be easier – The mounting of SnowGecko is done in three quick steps:



1. When stationary apply the hand brake. The vehicle must not be on a slope during fitting. SnowGecko should be fitted to the driving wheels.

2. Begin mounting from the top of the tire working downwards. Stretch the elastic band over the top of the tire, so that the band is on the inner side of the tire. Then adjust the SnowGecko into the correct position - as far down as possible until the front panel becomes centred.

3. Once in the proper position, with only the lower part not covering the tyre, move the vehicle approximately 1m forth or back. Pull the remaining part over the tire and into position. SnowGecko will automatically self-center when you start driving.

Warning: SnowGecko should only be used on ice and snow, and should be removed immediately once the conditions no longer require them to be used, or when the vehicle is parked. When starting up, no one should be behind the vehicle as stones and lumps of ice, etc. could be thrown backwards with great force. Display extra caution when fitting and driving with SnowGecko!
