Question:

Good evening- Looking for snow chains for 2015 Chevy Silverado crew cab 1500 with 275 55 r20 tires. Often skiing in mtns and need only for highway use in emergency conditions. Are all 4 tires needed to be chained in 4 wheels drive? Please advise as to your best chains. Thx!

For your 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 275/55R20 tires the Titan chains part # TC2327 have been confirmed as a fit and would work well. These chains are priced great, are pretty easy to install (especially for the price), and will provide you with great traction.

For the best possible traction you want to install chains on all 4 wheels. If you wanted to get by with just one set of chains you still could, but you would need them to be installed on the rear axle. You wouldn't have the same braking and handling traction as with chains on all 4 wheels, but you still will be able to get around.

You will want to check with Chevy and/or the owners manual of your truck for any restrictions on snow chain usage.
