				I am pretty sure you need specialised low clearance chains, eg like Thule make.  You can't use normal chains without risking damage. 
 I don't know if anyone in Vic hires them, so it may depend on whether you are willing to buy.  Google Thule k-summit chains to see what I am on about.

				Hi Titan,
 Thanks for the reply. I also looked at spikes spider, which is what LR sells, but just wondering if i can hire them as i rarely go to the snow and can't justify paying $500+ on chains just to use once a year even if that.
