Tires
Tire Chains
Mount snow chains on your vehicle
when warranted by driving condi-
tions or required by local laws.
Use only SAE class "S" chains. Only
certain brands of chains will fit your
CR-V without coming in contact with
the body or causing mechanical
damage. Before buying any types of
chains, you should consult with your
Honda dealer about the designs and
brands that will work on your CR-V.
Also, make sure you purchase the
correct size for your tires.
Install the chains only on the front
tires. Mounting any type of chains on
the rear tires will damage the body
and suspension. When installing the
chains, follow the manufacturer's
instructions and mount them as
tightly as you can. Drive slowly when
they are installed. If you hear them
coming in contact with the body,
stop and investigate them. Make
sure the chains are installed tightly,
and that they are not contacting the
brake lines or suspension. Remove
the chains as soon as you begin
driving on cleared roads.
Chains that are the wrong size or
design, or are improperly installed, can
damage your vehicle's brake lines,
suspension, body, and wheels. Stop
driving if they are hitting any part of
the vehicle.
