Abstract: A tire traction device can include a strap configured to extend around at least a portion of a vehicle tire; and a traction plate. The traction plate can have a lower surface adapted to sit on a circumferential portion of the vehicle tire, an upper surface opposite to the lower surface, a channel configured to receive the strap, and one or more paddles extending upward from the upper surface. Other features, embodiments, and kits, and related methods are also described.

Abstract: A tire traction device can include a primary strap configured to extend around at least a portion of a vehicle tire; a traction plate having a channel configured to receive the primary strap, and one or more traction-enhancing surfaces extending from the channel; and a base member having a first surface adapted to sit on a circumferential portion of the vehicle tire, and a second surface opposite to the first surface, wherein the second surface defines a recess adapted to receive the channel of the traction plate. Other features and embodiments, and a method of attaching a tire traction device to a vehicle tire, are also described.
