Ran across this new product on Amazon, with no product reviews, what does everyone think about these chains?
Here is what I see as a plus: very cheap if they work, easy to put on once you're stuck
The negatives: Tough to tell if they are just cheap junk, straps are a weak point for sure, but if they are semi replaceable that's not the end of the world, not sure how good the chains will really work, but adding additional chain supports is probably easy enough to do to make them more aggressive.
Let me know what your thoughts are, and keep in mind that these are not "going out into the mountains every weekend (SD is flat....) chains", more emergency type chains to use in a tough spot that I don't expect to have to drive 50 miles on regularly and as such, don't want to pay $200 a pain of chains for something that may never be used...
