Draper125 x 60 x 78mm Rubber Wheel Chocks | 2 Piece Levelling Ramps | Caravan Chocks | Anti Roll Vehicle Tools | 54500, Blue

I recently decided I would learn to do some basic car maintenance myself. My first job was to change the rear brake pads on my Ford Focus. I purchased all the tools I required including these chocks, as I read it is important to chock off the front wheels while the car is jacked up, or on Jack stands on the rear, (or vice versa). I did the work on my driveway, which is on a slight slope, so I placed the 2 chocks in front of the front tyres as the only way the car could roll was down the slight slope. If working on a level surface you would want to place a chock infront and behind one of your wheels, or purchase a 2nd set so you can chock in front and behind both wheels. The chocks are small, but do the job perfectly. I let the handbrake off and the chocks held the car in place securely, and I completed my first bit of maintenance knowing my car was secure and wouldn't roll. And because they are small, I recommend storing them in your car with your spare tyre, which is what I do now. That way the next time I get a puncture and need to swap to my spare, I can chock off the wheels for a safer wheel change, which was something I'd never considered before. Great product.

Smaller than expected but they do a great job. They're also quite light but sturdy. My driveway is on a slope and the car was never in any danger of moving.

Stops car rolling when jacked up? ... checkThese are a great piece of kit for those who may not want to make their own chocks using wood cut at an angle etc etc. I fell into that camp, and so bought these.They are tiny, maybe a few inches high and wide, so bear that in mind, but the rubber is grippy, and can mould to the floors surface, so therefore they are safe. They function perfectly and do what's required to stop the car from rolling away.Would I buy these again? Yes.

I always use chocks for my caravan for when it's being stored (on a gentle incline) and also when I use levelling ramps at a campsite pitch. Have in the past used heavy gauge plastic ones, but always found these slipped on the levelling ramp or just wouldnt grip that well. I've tried the super heavy duty type capable of holding 4T + but these were overkill and found actually you can't wedge them deep into the tyre and the ground. These are solid rubber and very well made. No slip and only give a tiny bit of flex, perfect.Don't know why people are moaning about the size, as you put these on the OUTER part of the tyre, they aren't meant to wedge the full width of one. So happy am going to buy another 2 sets, one as a spare and second for my car in case I ever have to change a spare wheel on anything other than flat. These inspire great confidence, and for the price incl. free delivery - an utter steal.

Small but handy, all good product

I brought these as I work on the car a lot, and even though I haven't had a problem up until now. I believed for the price these would be handy and provide an extra bit of security.After receiving them and like others have said they stink and are quite small, but having used them on a Astra, Signum, and a Golf, they have remained sturdy.

smaller than expected but do the job - I would buy ones twice the size for safety if I bought again

These are great. Smaller than I thought but they definitely hold the car when it is sitting for a while unused! Great price for a great product!
