Hey you guys!
This has prob already been beat to death but...
Life permitting I’m heading out in 30 days, come hell or high water, to do some backpacking, camping and skiing and I’m wondering if I need tire chains.
Plan is to hit the SLC, Colorado and potentially Taos scene.
Might let my nuts hang in Cali for a day or 2, but I’m pretty offended by the name of the resort there so it’s highly unlikely.
The main reason I feel like I might need chains is to plow into some closed trailhead parking lots to sneak in a few hrs rest.
With that being said, I’m not an aggressive driver and I’m prob not gonna be plowing into sketch shit alone in the winter.
I guess I’m more worried about parking somewhere, getting dumped on and getting stuck.
Maybe this sounds ridiculous.
Do I need these chains!?!?
Would you guys take chains on a trip like this?!?!
Are V bars good?!?!
So many questions!!!
My current vehicle is a stock 2020 Jeep gladiator with 255 75 17 bfg mud terrain t/a’s.
If anyone wants to send a direct link to the exact set of tire chains you’d recommend buying that would be awesome.
Happy holidays and thanks for any help!
Peace and love. ✌
