What are the best snow chains for the BMW 3 Series?
I’ll be taking a road trip to spend the holidays with my family this year. There will be some really snowy parts of the drive, and I’m sure that I will need to use snow chains at a few points. But here’s the thing: I have a new BMW M340i, and I really don’t want to damage my wheels or undercarriage with some rando brand of chains. Do you know what the best snow chains are for the BMW 3 Series?

The best snow chains for the BMW 3 Series are ones that are manufactured and sold by BMW. There are several different kinds available depending on the size of your wheels, and the folks at the dealership can help you make the best choice.
They may be more expensive than most of the non-BMW ones, but you’ll have the comfort of knowing that they are specifically designed to work for BMWs. Additionally, you can also set your drive mode to let your car know that snow chains are in use, and it will adjust accordingly.
Make sure you practice
putting your snow chains on
before you hit the road so that you’re good and comfortable with them when it comes time to use them. It could also be useful to review these tips for driving safely in the snow
, especially if you’ve never done it before.
Safe travels! View full answer
