I put up a video of the one major slide I had:
Watch this story by Kaitlyn McLachlan on Instagram before it disappears.
Now the rest of it was... manageable, but I definitely didn't enjoy not feeling like I didn't have full, reliable traction.
I don't know if I could have changed any driving settings or my driving behavior (maybe), but would certainly love to be able to have better traction on the front...
I've seen some (crazy expensive) options that don't have any chain connection around the inside of the tire (konig/thule k-summit) but it sounds like there is still clearance issues around the diameter of the tire...
