I have a 2013 Roadster with winter tires and I might have to drive in snow/ice pretty soon. Is there such a thing a snow chains for the Roadster? My late husband was pretty sure there wasn't enough clearance to drive with them so I never got round to exploring it. He drove a truck with 4x4 and was my ride in bad weather. (Just to forestall "stay at home suggestions", this is a work-related situation. I'm essential services and staying home is not an option.) Now I'm trying to plan ahead for worst case scenario. Anyone have any experience/suggestions for brands or styles?

Edit: current tires are 195/55R16. I don't recall the brand just that they are winter tires.

Thank you!

Snow tires with stud help 100%, i ran those for years.

 

Thanks for the info! Next time I need tires, I'm giving serious thought to studded. Winters here aren't getting any better.

 

Yep, the studs are loud but they will save you in ice and freezing rain.
