Tire chains on a C4 vette?

[nelson84]

Anybody ever put tire chains on a C4 in the winter? Is there enough clearence so they won't rub? This winter makes it tuff to drive the vette.

Anything can be done, it just takes two things: (1) time, (2) money. If there is a will there is a way.

I'm not sure that tire chains on a 'vette are such a good idea. Hang in there...spring is on it's way!

Go buy a throw away winter beater with the money you save by putting a storage policy on your vette.I've been doing it for 30 years,and it makes owning a vette much cheaper. less gas less maintenance less insurance and bonus a nicer car with lower miles when you sell for more money!!!!!!

You only have a few inchs of clearance with the front air dam. If the snow is deep enough to warrant chains you'll end up plowing your way home. Corvettes are many things to many people, but they're not snow plows.

My experience with chains is that they don't RUB, a link comes loose and they rip a big chunk of fibreglass out before you can correct the problem.
