Test-fit is good.  You can verify the fit and learn exactly how the system
works as well as checking the chains for faulty or worn links..You do not
want to get all frozen and wet and find you ain't going further due to
?...  I have some spare parts and some tie-wire that I keep in my
chains....If you get somewhere like Siskious, or I-80 and need to go long
miles with your  chains on....even new unused chains will often need work
before you get through...
