      SNOW CHAIN HIRE

      Snow Chains are chains that fit around your vehicle's tyres to provide better traction when driving on snow or ice. The rules around snow chains vary slightly between states. Generally, they are required in alpine regions throughout Australia’s snow season. We recommend if you are driving to the snow, you carry snow chains so they can be fitted if conditions require or if instructed by authorities.

      Please see below for information regarding your tyres that we need and call us on 08 8344 1166 to discuss the best option for your vehicle. NOTE: we have a limited number of chains available; we recommend you book as soon as you know the dates you require them.

      Please check your vehicle owner's manual under wheel/tyre/snow chains. Some manuals have specific advice, and some have limited details. Most manuals will at least advise whether your vehicle definitely cannot fit chains with any tyre size fitted. There will be a section where the manufacturers advise you must only fit to forward or rear tyres. Some service books list the tyre sizes you can only successfully fit to. Others do not list tyre sizes, but any mention of “single-sided traction devices (spider chains)”, “half chains”, “wire chains”, or “fine link” chains is a flag that your vehicle may have clearance issues. THERE ARE MANY VEHICLES THAT CANNOT FIT CHAINS DUE TO CLEARANCE ISSUES. Sufficient clearance between chains and brakes, suspension and body components must be maintained. No one wants to see damage to your car or jeopardise your safety & if chains are fitted against the manufactures advice – you could void your insurance.

      To hire the correct size for your vehicle, we need the following:

        • Tyre Width
        • Tyre Height 
        • Rim Size
