First, I would not use the V-Bar Emergency chains. I don't believe there is sufficient clearance for them. I have used the cable chains, in the past, to include a Mustang Cobra, in Germany. They do work on the side streets, and hills. I believe you are restricted to 45-50 mph with them, so interstate travel would be slow going. Check you manual to see what is recommended or not recommended.

With that said, I have to agree, with other posters, a good set of full winter tires (with the snow flake on the sidewall) will end up saving you much grief. Check with Tire Rack, on line, and look at the various tires available. I used Dunlops on my Crossfire, and the lack of serious chest pains while driving in the ice, in North Texas, was well worth the cost.

I sold my Crossfire when coming to South Dakota from DFW, as I didn't want to subject her to the salt and rock chip mixture used on the roads in winter. Good luck!
