A tire grip enhancing assembly includes a covering for removably positioning on a tire. The covering comprises a flexible material and has a first lateral wall, a second lateral wall and a perimeter wall that is attached to and extends between the first and second lateral walls. Each of the first and second lateral walls has an annular opening extending therethrough. A plurality of raised members is attached to and extends away from the perimeter wall. A pair of bands is provided. Each the annular opening has a perimeter edge has one of the bands attached thereto. Each band is comprised of a resiliently stretchable material.

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.
