Smile Spike Spiders - Snow Chain Alternative

Category: Wheels & Tires
Price: $100
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R56
Location (Region): SoCal
Item Condition: Used

Selling a set of the Swiss-made Spike Spiders. These are tire chain alternatives that work with low clearance vehicles. I had this set to use on my 2007 R56 for a cross country trip. Never used them. Mounted once for fit and have been sitting in my garage since. These are great and are pretty much the only tire chain alternative for 17inch MINIs due to clearance issues. Sold my R56 so no use for them now :(

They come with everything needed to mount on existing studs on your vehicle. Comes with 8 lug extenders that screw right on to your existing lugs to mount the backing plates. You'll need to do a stud conversion for the front hubs, which is pretty easy.

More info can be found here: http://www.spikes-spiders.com/compact

Again, these were specifically for my 2007 R56S with 17inch wheels (205/45R17), but can work on other similar wheel sized vehicles with 4 lugs.

Local pickup only in Orange County, CA.

Message with any questions. Thanks!

Prefer to keep it local if at all possible. But would be willing to ship if you were interested. Not sure what it would come out to since it's pretty bulky, but I can take a look and guesstimate pricing if you give me your zip. Let me know!

No worries. A rough estimate has it at about $45 for UPS ground based off approximate dimensions I got off Amazon. Let me know!
