Maggi TRAK Sport car chains (pair) no. S210

£174.95
RRP: £250.00
Code: MGS210-0

Maggi TRAK Sport are a good option for cars with limited clearance around the wheel arch, and/or a 'No fit' for traditional chains, and/or of course for customers who just want a quick and easy fitting system at a relatively cheap price.

We distribute Maggi and, with overstocks from last season, are giving our customers a significant discount to the Thule K-Summit alternative!


Why are they special? Maggi's TRAK is the original single wheel-bolt fixing ‘ladder track chain’ system, much copied but never bettered!

Many people buy TRAK chains because they appreciate the innovation and the overall quality of the engineering which makes them particularly quick and easy to fit, even to tyres which are not suitable for traditional snow chains. Once they’ve been adjusted for your wheels and wheel bolts – which takes about 10 minutes on first use only – you can’t really forget how to fit them (this is a problem with traditional chains!) and no tools are required. And unlike traditional chains, they don’t need to be untangled before use.

How do they work? Ladder track chains are fitted to the wheel rim, with no need to do any fitting or uncoupling work above or behind the wheel. This means that you shouldn’t ever need to kneel on the ground, and generally the fitting is a relatively clean and easy process. Apart from Spikes-Spider chains, all ladder track chains are fitted to one wheel nut or bolt per wheel; the Maggi TRAK system, uniquely, uses a hand wheel to make this wheel bolt fixing, a hand wheel that’s large enough to generate the squeezing force required.

The TRAK Sport are then braced against the tyres with specially shaped and sprung tensioning arms. When you drive off the chains will very quickly work their way onto the tyres, and their self-adjusting and self-tensioning technologies will keep them in the correct position, regardless of the road surface. They're surprisingly quiet in use.

You'll see that all the chain is on the face of the tyre, with no chain inside the tyre, which is the reason that TRAK are approved for vehicles which have a "No fit" for traditional chains. ("No fit" usually suggests, for example, that there's a shock absorber which would clash with the chain on the inside of the tyre - or perhaps there's electronic equipment that can't cope with finding spinning metal where there's normally only rubber.)

Use on grass: As well as working very well on snow we've found that Maggi TRAK Sport also make easy work of moving cars which are skidding on wet grass – so if you keep a set in your car you shouldn't get stuck anywhere!

TRAK Sport - other features and information:

  • They're made from boron and manganese steels, optimally case hardened for strength and longevity, and then galvanized.
  • The chain links and riveted traction plates (that connect the chain links to the supporting arms) are only 10mm high.
  • TRAK Sport score very highly for strength and durability as well as performance, due in part to the overlapping cross links.
  • The tension arms fold together around the universal joint (a fundamental part of the self-adjusting technology) so they pack down a lot smaller than you might expect.
  • They're supplied in a strong ballistic nylon carrying bag which sits easily in the angle of the rear seat (for example) and therefore takes up surprisingly little space.
  • They're TÜV approved.
  • They’re supplied with fittings for 17, 19 and 21mm wheel bolts - adapters are available if you have larger wheel nuts.
  • We stock a full spares programme.

Delivery FAQs

When will my order arrive?
There are no deliveries on Saturdays, Sundays or Bank Holidays, except for postable items where Royal Mail has a Saturday delivery. Express Delivery orders placed on a Friday (before 1pm) should be delivered on the Monday or Tuesday, Express Delivery orders placed on a Saturday or Sunday should be delivered on the Tuesday or Wednesday. The arrangements for Very Heavy Items are different and are shown above.

What about Next Working Day delivery?
Most Express delivery orders will arrive on the next working day, if the order is placed before the cut-off time (see above). Some will arrive on the second working day if there has been a "split-delivery". So-called “split deliveries” happen when the couriers do not have enough trailer space for everything that should be moved around the UK, so they will load what they can and leave the rest for the next trailer.

Is my delivery day guaranteed?
No retailer or courier company can ever "guarantee" a Next Working Day delivery. As well as split deliveries, all courier companies occasionally have the same transport problems as can happen to everyone else, including snow blocked roads, closed roads, traffic jams, mechanical breakdown, an inability to find the delivery address, or to gain access to it if, for example, it's in a block of flats. We work with some of the best couriers in the business, and overall they provide an outstanding service.

Do I need to be at home?
We are very flexible with our deliveries and will aim to deliver to an address which suits you – this does not need to be your home address. Goods can usually be left without signature - we prefer this with roof boxes. There's a "Special Delivery Instructions" box in the checkout area where we'll ask you to choose a typical instruction and then amend it to suit your particular requirements.

There are two parts to our snow chains offer this year:

(1) Clearance prices on many top branded snow chains, including RUD and Thule - an amazing opportunity for those who are quick off the mark! Thule (who are the biggest brand in the car racks market) have sold their snow chains division; the same chains are now being sold under the König brand. Thule branded chains have the same specifications as the König branded versions - all that has changed is the name on the chain and the name on the box.

(2)   Multibuy discounts - significant discounts if you buy two pairs of snow chains at the same time, or one pair of chains and one pair of AutoSock: If you do either of these things, we will discount the snow chains as follows:

  • König, Polaire and Spikes-Spider snow chains - at least 10% off!
  • INNO, Maggi, RUD and Thule snow chains - at least 20% off! Up to 30% off where we have large overstocks.

As usual, you change the quantities in the Shopping Basket.

Many customers will, for example, use snow chains on their driving wheels for Alpine use, and use AutoSock on the non-driving wheels, especially if these are the steering wheels. Also note that AutoSock work very well in very wet snow, even on slush, where snowchains are often not suitable because they can't get any grip in the snow. So having both AutoSock and snowchains makes sense from at least two different perspectives.
