Snow Chains and Snow Socks for Citroen Visa 1978 to 1988 with 165/50-15 tyres

We specialise in high-quality snow chains and snow socks designed for winter driving in the UK and across mainland Europe. Whether you're heading to the Alps for a ski holiday or preparing for sudden snow at home, choosing the right product for your vehicle is essential.

Snow chain fitting information is TBC.

We have not yet been told which chains may safely be used on this vehicle. We are listing all the snow chain options for this tyre, but please double check your vehicle handbook to see whether the use of snow chains is permitted.

Note that any of the 'Ladder track chains' in our list may be used even if your handbook tells you that snow chains may not be used - the handbook will be referring to 'Traditional chains' which also place chain on the inside of the tyres, which is where there can be insufficient space to fit chains.

Thule CG-9 snow chains (pair) no. CG-9 030

Traditional snow chains

If clearance is limited behind the wheel these 9mm chains may be your only option, but they're a good option. CG chains have the following features:

an asymmetric diamond pattern to prevent the chain getting stuck in the tyre grooves and to improve lateral stability and, above all
Thule’s superb automatic chain tensioning system which constantly seeks to keep the chains as tight as possible and saves you the hassle of getting out of the car again after a hundred metres or so and retightening the chains. When you come to fit the chains at the bottom of the hill leading to a ski resort you’ll probably find several long lay-bys which are designed for "stopping again", but it’s not always so easy or convenient, especially in a blizzard!
