The picture shows two pieces of chains on one tire. You need to buy two packs for your two tires. Descriptions do not point this out!

I have several sets of these strap-on chains and have received good service. I wouldn't recommend them for regular winter driving, but for those occasions where I need to get up a glazed hill, or out of a shallow ditch, these will do the trick. Easy to install and remove, they provide added traction when something more is needed to get me back on my way.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for certain uses, not suitable for other uses, December 27, 2008

This product is good for Seattle conditions. In Seattle, the city government is opposed to salt use and standard plowing. They said they want to have snow/ice packed so they use rubber plows. Without saying whether the Mayor is smart or idiotic, this results in impassable side streets and some major streets. This product is good for those who drive on mediocre streets without chains but need to drive into the side streets to your home. It is only good for 1-2 blocks in my opinion. For that use it is good. Regular chains are not suitable if you need to drive on the interstate, which is high speed and cleared well by the state government. In short, if you need chains, this is not a substitute. If you need temporary traction for a very short distance but don't need chains for most driving, this is the perfect product. Do your self a favor and carry a flashlight and some gloves when installing it.
