Most Popular Steel V-Bar for 2017 Ford Explorer

They were shipped quickly. Driving out west hope I don't have to use them.

The snow change received were an excellent quality even better than showen in the photo's.

I had a heck of a time trying to get chains. No where locally, had the size I needed so I had to go online. etrailer.com was actually quick and easy to use. Found the ones I needed and got them ordered. It said it wasn't going to be delivered till the 27 or 28th... they came in on the 24th! Because of the fast delivery I was able to use them today and boy, did I need them! Snow, slippery, the road had kind of a step climb up to the job. Had a couple spots where I had to back up and take a different approach. Telling you, these chains were great! Thanks again for the quick delivery!

These are the best chains, hands down. I live off grid in an area where people constantly lose their vehicles or get them stuck. I need these half of the year and I've never been stuck, even with multiple feet of snow and ice. For most people I don't think you'll ever need replacement parts but for people like me they're easy to repair, diagnose, tighten etc. It's worth noting that you need some grip strength to tighten the cams, I haven't had issues but if you're a woman I'd recommend the "T" shape cam tightener etrailer sells so you can torque it better. It's important to note that these work great with even super knobby tires, so don't shy away if you need this style of chain. I can't recommend these enough, if you're a road traveler this is not the product for you but if you're on the farm, using this for a plow truck on an icy dirt road, going up snowy hills, going offroad in the snow, are camping in snowy wilderness etc this is for you. Just make sure you don't spin, because you can easily snap cross bars this way. etrailer is fantastic, as an aside and has been super helpful.

Very fast shipping!! Arrived in great condition. No complaints and will definitely be ordering all my chains from here. Would recommend to anybody. Thank You

Chains are perfect, mounted and tested, getting my snowplow ready for winter. I only had to cut a few links off of the ends for a perfect fit, I made sure the v-bars were all pointing out. I am anxious for our first snowfall. I am happy with all of my purchases from e-trailer

We just finished two years of full-time travel around the US. I bought two sets of chains and they fit snuggly, as expected, on my LT 275/65 R18 tires. I also bought two types of chain binders to keep them tight and positioned correctly in different conditions. So, that's 4 chain & spring binders AND 4 rubber binders ... just in case. I mounted them all to test the fit and practice my skills and drove 4 mi. on a dirt road. All went well. As we zig zag around the US it's a smart move to carry these chains and binders with us. Many states in the west have highways and roads that mandate use of chains. I'm glad I didn't need to use them last year but I'm confident we're ready if need be. Thanks to etrailer for great documentation and Fabulous customer service!

Have used tire chains for over 50 years. Took a chance on buying these for a new SUV despite misgivings over the large range of tires these are supposed to work with. Both as experienced user and retired design engineer, the range of tire sizes didn't make sense. Do they "fit". i.e. can they be installed, yes. Will they stay in place with use of proper placement and tensioners? Not above 10 mph. Writing these off as a bad investment and will design and build a set of custom chains that work.

Great set of chains, worked perfect on my 2015 Ford Explorer with 245/60 R18 tires. Watch the installation videos and give them a practice in ideal conditions, so when you’re in the elements and have to get it do e you’ll have the process down. I would also suggest to keep a small bungee cord in the bag with the chains to help give a little length to the links that hook around the backside of the tire to make it easier to grab to help pull the links to the hook. Otherwise these are awesome and great for ice or snow, and seem to be high quality.

They looked like a nice set of chains, but have to rate a 1 star due to my experience. A customer service rep confirmed via chat that these chains would fit my tires (265 70 R16), but they were too small.

Chains were the correct size and light enough to handle easily. Product seems to operate well under snow and ice conditions like it was designed to do. All good to report.

Needed some individual adjustments (shortening, removing one cross-link) to my tires (no complain). After that, fitted very tight and performed above expectations on an unplowed section of road from the highway to my lake cabin.
