Thule's XD16 snow chains for SUVs, commercial trucks and RVs are perfect for off-roading adventures or for simple safety enhancement on icy, snowy roads. The included tensioning device makes mounting a snap. Just pull the rubber strap taut to tighten the chain for a perfect fit. All Thule snow chains are handmade in Italy of hardened manganese nickel alloy steel for durability. The dual-sided, 16-millimeter-diameter, D-shape links provide superior traction for excellent grip on snow and ice. The XD16 chains also offer protection for your alloy rims in the form of integrated nylon buttons that prevent the chains from coming into contact with and scratching your wheels.


Included with each pair of chains are mounting instructions, a kneeling mat and a pair of gloves, all packaged in a sturdy, reusable container.


Thule XD16 Tire Chain Installation

How to Install the XD16 Snow Chain

  1. Spread the chain out around the tire and hook the plastic-covered, yellow end of the cable through the opposite, hooked end.
  2. Connect the red hook to the red loop on the side chain. Then move the cable portion of the chain over the top and around to the back of the tire. (Make sure the cable does not ride on the tire's tread.)
  3. Thread the tension chain (A) through the stop device (B). Then pass the chain through the shortening hook (C) and - using the rubber tensioner - hook the chain to a link in the side chain (D).
  4. Drive forward and stop to check the tension on the chains. To tighten them, pull the tension chain taut through the stop device and shortening hook and then hook it onto a link in the side chain farther out than the one you hooked it to initially. See E in the above diagram.

How to Choose Snow Chains for Your Vehicle

To choose the right snow chains, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire, as shown below.
