What are the Differences Between the Pewag Snox Pro and the Pewag Servo RS

Question:

I am deciding between the Pewag Servo RS Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Item # PWRS75 and the Pewag Snox Pro Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Item # PWSXP560. Can you tell me the differences between the two? I do not see a comparison chart. Thanks for your help!!

The Pewag Snox Pro part # PWSXP560 and the Pewag Servo RS part # PWRS75 are both excellent tire chains. They have several similarities but also a few key differences. I have created an itemized list of these similarities and differences for you below, similar to a comparison chart.

Servo RS:

- Drape Over Tire - Make Connections
- Steel Square Link
- Diamond Links
- Rim Protection
- Class S Compatible

Snox Pro:

- Drape Over Tire - No Connections
- Steel Square Link
- Diamond Links
- Rim Protection
- Class S Compatible

As you can see for the chart above, both tire chains have steel links, are diamond shaped, Class S compatible, and have rim protection. The only real difference between the two is in regards to how they install on the vehicle. The Servo RS will need to be draped over the tires and then the connections for the links must be made. The Snox Pro will also need to be draped over the tires but will not require you to make any additional connections. I recommend the Snox Pro as they will not require as much time and effort to install in comparison to the Servo RS.

Please note that you can only install a set of tire chains on the front two wheels of your 2017 Toyota Camry. I have also attached an installation video for each set of chains that way you can compare the installation process for yourself.
