If you're planning to drive in an area where snow and ice are common, you may be wondering if you can put snow chains on a Hertz rental car. The answer is yes, but there are some things to keep in mind.
First, check your rental agreement to see if there are any restrictions on using snow chains. Some companies don't allow them to be used on their vehicles. If there are no restrictions, make sure you know how to properly install the chains before heading out onto the roads. It's also a good idea to practice putting them on in a safe location so you're familiar with the process.
Once you have the chains, attaching them is typically pretty straightforward. You'll need to position the car so that the chain can be draped over the tire and then pulled tight. There will usually be some type of clip or latch that secures the chain in place. Once it's secure, double check that everything looks right before getting back on the road.
Keep in mind that driving with snow chains can be more challenging than driving without them. Take your time and go slowly until you get used to the feel of the chains on your tires. And always remember to remove them when they're no longer needed so you don't damage your rental car's tires or suspension system.
