Note: To determine whether you can use snow chains on your vehicle, or if they might affect your ABS/EPS functionality, consult your owner's manual.
These pewag ladder-patterned chains are great winter weather chains for your SUV, truck, or 4WD vehicle. Not only do the grooved square links dig into deep snow and ice better than rounded or standard square links, but the reversible design of these chains also allows them to wear under standard use much longer than other chains. And if you're partial to American-made products, you'll be happy to know that these are made in Colorado.
If you know your tire size, you may think you won't need to test fit your new chains. But there are a lot of variables that can affect whether chains will fit your specific tires, including your tire type, the amount of air pressure in the tire, the amount of tread wear, and the tire manufacturer. You'll also need to know how much clearance is in your wheel well, which you can determine by measuring from your tire tread to the sidewall of the wheel well.
We recommend that you order chains as early in the season as possible to give yourself plenty of time to test fit the chains and reorder if needed. This way, you won't be stuck out in the cold later with snow chains that don't fit.
You can test fit these chains in your garage or driveway, but you'll want to wait until there's snow on the ground to actually drive with them. Likewise, if you're out in the snow and come across bare pavement, you'll want to pull over and remove the chains. These chains can cause damage to the bare pavement, your garage floor, or your vehicle if they break from the wear of riding on a harsh surface.
Installing these chains is simple.
1. Lay out the chains on the ground to make sure there are no twists or kinks.
2. Drape the chains over your tires, making sure that the prongs attaching the cross chains to the side chains face away from your sidewalls. Drive forward about half a tire rotation.
3. On the back of the tire, pull the chain tight and hook the ends together. Repeat this on the front of the tire.
4. Insert the included tool into the cam and twist to tighten the sidewall chain. Twist as many cams as it takes to get a tight fit.
5. Drive forward 2-3 vehicle lengths and recheck the chain tension. Tighten any loose cams. If needed, rubber adjusters (sold separately) can be used to get a tight fit. Make sure the hooks on the adjusters face away from your tire so your wheels don't get scratched.
Quick Tips:
To choose the right snow chain, you must match your tire size. Those measurements can be found on the side of your tire.

great service!
Chains fit my tires very well and appear to be very well made.
Great service and knowledge of product. Delivered ahead of schedule.
These are excellent chains! These chains were the number 1 choice when I use to plow snow for the county for 20+ years. Very quick delivery of 3 days!
Great service as usual.
Heavy durable chains . Wish the tightening tool was longer for more leverage .
We haven't had any snow since purchase.
As in all things in life.. the best time to sell a home, car, watch or whatever is BEFORE YOU HAVE to! This supplier is great, the product is great, I need them for a trip this coming December, thats why I bought them now.
All I can tell you is that they're heavy. I purchased them "just in case" and didn't need them last year. Hopefully, I won't ever need them. Heck; I don't even know if they actually fit, I never even tried them on.
These bad boys eat through snow like a sumo wrestler at a buffet table.... They bite into ice and snow like a grizzly feasting on salmon. Definitely take the time to learn to put these on and actually put them on before you need them!! Helpful online videos if this is your first prom dance...
Chains worked very well. They were easy to install and they provided good traction.
