Service and Maintenance
Snow Antiskid Chain
The snow antiskid chain can be used with
the tires for summer and the ones for

This phenomenon will be removed when

In order to avoid the full diameter wheel

installing the antiskid chain.
After the antiskid chain is removed,
immediately reinstall the wheel cap.
