Is your vehicle a FWD, RWD, or a 4*4?
Snow chains/ cables are, most of the times, not required with a four wheel drive, unless made mandatory by the state laws during a heavy snow storm or extremely harsh weather conditions. For a 2*2 vehicle, you again have a choice between cable chains, snow chains, and snow socks. I'd recommend you to go for snow chains, as they are super durable and provide excellent traction, even in extremely harsh conditions. Snow socks, being a little cheaper, are much more prone to wear and tear and do not last long. Most of the times, car manufacturers do no recommend the usage of such traction devices because they could damage the vehicle components, or sometimes scratch the rims, when abused. Just go for a good quality pair of chains and you'd be good to go. I'd recommend CB-12 snow chain by Thule. Stellar performance, easy to install, and amazing build quality.
