Hi Falco

Do you have any problems with the front chains hitting the wheel well.. or do the adjusters take up all the slack..

I have a set of cable chains and no matter how tightly they are cinched they still seem to slap the wheel well.
only after adding about 9 bunjie cords did this go away.
your tensioners look like they would work, but they need to be singing tight.

thanks

Often the slapping sound comes from the tailing bit of chain on the inside of the wheel and for that I use baling wire to secure it. Spider bungees are excellent, just right.

That's right! Finally tested my set of Z-Chains from SCC. Perfect!
