AUTOSOCK HP698 Snow Socks for Passenger Tires, Pack of 2 — Lightweight, Easy-Fit Traction

AUTOSOCK HP698 are textile snow socks designed to boost traction on passenger vehicle tires in snowy or icy conditions, sold as a convenient pack of two.

When winter roads get slippery, many drivers want a lightweight, fast-to-fit alternative to traditional metal chains. The AUTOSOCK HP698 slips over your tire to increase grip on snow and packed ice while remaining compact to store. These fabric covers are engineered for easy installation and reuse, making them a practical choice for infrequent snow encounters and for drivers who need a space-saving traction solution.

How quickly can I fit AUTOSOCK HP698 when conditions worsen?

Installation is intentionally simple: stretch the sock over the tire, drive a short distance to seat it, then adjust for an even fit. A basic three-step routine means most users can be back on the road within minutes without tools or complex fittings.

• Three-step application: position, pull over a short distance, retension for snug fit
• No special tools or jacks required
• Fits many common passenger tire sizes for fast, roadside use

What traction and durability can I expect from these snow socks?

AUTOSOCK’s textile compound combines flexible fiber with an engineered grip pattern to improve contact on snow and abrasive ice patches. While not intended for continuous highway use on bare pavement, they stand up to repeated installations and storage for seasonal use.

• Textile grip design to increase friction on snow and compacted ice
• Reusable construction folds small for off-season storage
• Recommended for intermittent winter conditions rather than extended dry-road driving

Are AUTOSOCK HP698 compliant with regional traction rules and which tires do they fit?

These AutoSocks meet or exceed many international traction regulations and are produced to satisfy standards used in both North America and Europe. They are available for numerous passenger tire dimensions—check your tire size against the product compatibility list before purchasing.

• Manufactured to comply with multiple road traction standards
• Compatible with a broad range of passenger tire sizes (verify your tire code first)
• Sold as a pair to equip two drive wheels for balanced traction

Who is this product for? The AUTOSOCK HP698 is aimed at drivers who want a compact, quick-to-apply traction aid for winter driving—commuters, SUV and crossover owners, and travelers who occasionally face snowy roads but prefer not to carry heavy chains. They're especially useful for vehicles that require a lightweight solution for regional snow laws or for drivers who prioritize easy installation and storage. Avoid using them as a permanent substitute for dedicated winter tires in areas with prolonged severe winter conditions.
