If you have 3 1/2 to 4 inches clearance between the tires and the cowl, then it is easy to put the snap rings on and off. I do not have that space. I can just get my hands almost in with my fingers trying to clench the snap ring and push them on over the tires. If I don't put them on prior to dumping the air bags and turning the engine off, I cannot even attempt putting them on. So it depends on the clearance. I purchased them so I am using them. When they wear out I will do the heavy chain thing. That being said, if you have the clearance I would get them.
