Mini - Video tutorial

Model: Mini Mini R50, R53, R52 - Years 2001-007
Part: Snow chains
Operation: Guide to the assembly of spider snow chains

There are more alternatives to normal snow chains, one of the easiest and quickest to assemble is the so-called "snow spiders". To be able to use them, at the beginning of the winter season we must have a stud fitted by our trusted tire dealer which will be placed on the rims concerned at the hub height, which will serve as an anchor at the time of installation. First we must remove the small plastic stud, then we will affix the spider, pressing it towards the wheel itself and then securing it with the appropriate bolt, we repeat the operation also for the other wheel.
