[QUOTE="0311, post: 2428845, member: 26943"] Snow cables are excellent on ice, but when one drives through one county into the next, road maintenance can go from zero to very high. Sustained driving on cleared highway will ruin the cables. Unless you can pull over and take them off, then you may be dealing with icy pockets here and there where you need them again. Winter tires on your Honda would be a lot less hassle. I will always keep the cables in the trunk, but since I switched to winter tires in November, I've not needed the cables one time. Winter tires don't necessarily imply studs, mine have crushed walnut shell in them and are sticky on the ice. They've got their own rims and I'll be swapping them out this spring. I've not noticed any tread wear yet, and these should last for many winters. I use them on an old Escort FrontWD, and they are 100% effective. [/QUOTE]
