    Default Snow tires or chains on Spyders

    Has anyone fitted chains or snow tires on a Spyder and what are suggested or recommended? I ride year round and I don’t want to be restricted to summer time use. So any recommendations please?

    Don't waste your time. You've got a single rear wheel that simply cannot push the two front wheels through just about any amount of snow at all.

    I can tell you from experience 2 years ago that the rt-s can move in light snow & with the vredstein quadratrac it
    does work in snow but they only make the front tires in our size

    sorry my bad. I'm still trying to figure out what snow is. It might show up in middle Tennessee maybe once every 3 to 5 years.
